Anyway, totally my fault but we should probably get to the point or take this to another thread.

well, sorry, it is mostly my fault more than yours, I was kidding a bit, and I didn't thought about deviating from the point of the discussion.
btw guys plz stop it, this is not a graphic card thread where to discuss the advantages of 3dfx's voodoo serie or the prices of recent GPUs, it is a post where to discuss the improovments of FSO about new file specs for images, no more no less

Well, let me get PCX nailed down first
I'm not in a hurry to get into ani but I guess it really has to be done as well.

Ani's are just a collection of pcx's I think so storing a 32 bit animation of FSO probably requires a rethink

I'll knock together some high colour backgrounds and see how they hold together :) As for the ANI's, would it be easier to have each frame as a 256colour PCX, but each with it's own pallete, and if it can't find a pallette, it uses the default one? That way it would be backward compatible, and I'm sure people could do animations fine with 256 colours per frame?

Flipside :D

Edit : The only problem is that these would still cause Big animation files.

Also, apparently this works with JPEG? Well if that's the case use a high quality JPEG file - you won't notice the difference and the file size should at least be halved I reckon... Also anyone can save in JPEG but not everyone can save in .TGA (depending on the program used)...

People will have to make there own judgements on quality vs size. I merely offer the choice.

ANI's are a special case that need to be discussed seperately in a new thread I think.

Nice finally something other than the unamazing 256 color scheme that was going on in Freespace 2. Now I can run 32 bit images with no problems at all and have the added bonus of running the game at 1600x1200. :eek: :D
