Title: Does FS2_open load DDS or TGA files first?
Post by: WMCoolmon on March 28, 2004, 05:58:31 pm

ie if I have two files with the same names, one DDS and one TGA, which will fs2_open use?

well I'm not sure, but I think the load order is tga, jpg, dds, pcx, and ani.

(tga->jpg->dds->pcx) in that order if -jpgtga is used, otherwise it's (dds->pcx).  This is in grd3dbmpman.cpp and I changed bmpman.cpp to have the same order for OGL (not in CVS yet).

THAT's why OGL FRED loads pcx even if tga is present, but it loads DDS over pcx if present... even though it doesn't know how to display it.
