BMP to DDS converter

[guzler]

I have done a batch conversion by copying imagetool.exe
into the texture directory and then executing:

imagetool -nobeep -dxt5 -dds -nodither *.bmp

I have also done it recursively using a couple of batch files
to accomplish a conversion for all my AI aircraft textures.
Adding the -r option will cause imagetool to convert in the
current directory and all subdirectories. Here is the command line I used for DTX3 conversion:

imagetool -e dds -DXT3 -dds -mip -nogui -r *.bmp

Ok, I have copied image tool into the texture folder. How did you execute all the other stuff after it ? I can't see any of these options in the menus ?

If you are making BAT files, simply double click the BAT with left mouse button. Its the same as an EXE file, it 'starts' the ImageTool EXE and tells it what to do. (Wake up, do this to these, and this too, and then go back to sleep).

Put that text into a file using any text editor and name it
DDS_convert.bat

Place that in the folder and double-click on it.
