I seem to have a problem with converting *.bmp files into *.pcx files, whenever I use IrFanView to convert the image and than put it in my mod (for stuff like the load screen and the consoles) it appears black, I assume it's a problem with the file itself since it does not crash the mod but I guess it can be something else... help?

Try Gimp.

True. GIMP is good enough, although a bit 'wacky' to operate, if you ask me....wink.gif

It needs to be set as an indexed color *.pcx file. It also needs to be the right size. Read this.
