Texture memory problem.

Not exactly sure. I got

Code:

generic error:

Insufficient texture memory to load required texture set. (OWTTE)

I believe it was because some of my textures didn't have the most compressed compression type (BC1/DXT1) and I just had to re-save them. It was wierd though because I have 512MB dedicated texture memory and the textures couldn't have topped 10MB on that battlemap. If you re-save as BC1/DXT1 compression you should remove the error.

Yup, this has been addressed before in several places. Just on an interesting aside, I found out the other day that one of the reasons textures sometimes create an error when trying to save them is that the file name is too long.

(using PSP 7)

I have got that error before but usually can get rid of it by checking textures and there's usually one that stands out. The textures were in a compression I'd used before so that's why i was totally confused. It could be because I was using some old textures and there was a mix of compressions. Meh...

Damnit I'm an idiot.

No, you're not. You're doing very well and are grasping hold of things well - and sticking with it.

Am I? I think I'm going mad. I got that error again and I swear I compressed it when I saved but turns out not. Ah well I'll fix it next time and I swear i wont post. :D

Can I ask which textures caused the problem,? it seems that anything from sprites to unit files can give this msg..

And was (OWTTE) included in the msg,? I've not seen that before.

oh and what's (BC1/DXT1) .. is that a gimp file type?..
