Texture conversion

[TheRedBaron]

I cant figure out how to convert textures. I downloaded the pan tool and the paa tool but when i put a texture into paa it gives me the error message "tga file is not 32bpp, was 24bpp" and the pan tool gives me this "floating point division by zero" oh and tex view give me a little black square in the top left corner, what am i doing wrong?

Are you using photoshop or Paintshop Pro?
When using PSP you need to save them as 24bit uncompressed tga's.. and do CTRL+A and add an alpha layer so it becomes 32bit.. then you will be able to open it in Paatool etc

I dont have either,do I have to have one of them and if so how much do they cost?
