Texture not registering

[astrotrooper]

Ok I've completed my first ship - a Romulan Cabbage/Sabinus cruiser.


Separation, phasers, shading, glows, conversion the whole thing.

The textures are in GIF I used another functional and tryed ship's gif as a palette/base for the gif (I "hijacked" it as per the instructions).

The texture was applied in gif format to the ship in creator as per the instructional video. It's also 256x256 size.

Now I got to the phase where I export the HOB and the texture into the .res file, and register it with ultimate editor etc. The texture file is not showing up - it's like it's not there.

I have tried importing several textures in with the same or different names they are not showing up either.

What could be the problem?

stupid question but better be save:

did you hit the "register texture" button in order to make UE search for a new texture?

Uh..no .... on your video you go straight to the hob file.... to link the texture...

But yeah now I found it .....

Couldn't figure out what the problem was .. if there are any more snags I'll let you know..

Thanks..
