Does anyone have/ know how to make shinemaps, glowmaps, etc for the Ezechiel?

I made a quick shinemap at some point.  I'll post it when I get home.

YAY! 

is it in pcx? because otherwise i can't edit it, and it needs to be a special color.

Wow, no one uses PCX anymore, man. Use DDS.

Its often preferable to keep the images in TGA format and then converting them to DDS files after hey are ready to use. If you are planning to edit the image do not use DDS format.

or use PCX to edit.. it really doesn't matter

Well playing - and wasting time - with 8 bit images is not really that much fun as almost every even remotely decent piece of software can use 24/32 bit TGAs.

Completely right. Neither DDS nor PCX should be edited(!)
It is compressed already. Editing it would mean recompressing it, so you get twice the artifacts.

Also PCX is dead. It doesn't use mip maps and has only 8-Bit. I wouldn't even consider using it for glow maps.
(No mipmaps = slighty worse performance + flickering pixelsat some distance)

Except for me of course...

Looks like it is PCX after all.  I thought it was TGA, but I guess I didn't bother to change the file type when I resaved in PS.
