No. One, this will only generate the files needed for the Hires interface, i.e. the 2_* files. Two, it uses template files derived from the original FS2 interface, and recolors them. The main visual improvement can be seen in the various interface screens, since those are composited together from a source image, two interface layers that make up the UI elements  you can see, and a logo layer.
At the moment, it is only suitable to create something like a "skin" for FreeSpace, with all the basic shapes and UI elements we know from the standard FS interface.
If you want something that is completely different (Like BtRL's or WCS's interface art), this will not help very much.
It is best suited to create images like the ones TBP uses.

It's still pretty powerful.

Uncommented the lines that say uncomment to make pcx's and still no *.pcx output.
Neither in the PCX folder, nor in the OUTPUT folder.
I'm just using the sample config you put up.

Bug confirmed, broke something trying to add extra checking to pcx conversion. :nervous:

In the meantime, you have tga images in the output directory you can still use to create the ANI with after converting yourself.

Oh, no doubt about it. Used creatively, this can really lead to awesome results.
