ARRgh! ACE files

Post by DriverXY »

I've been following the instructions on tis site for creating a 1024x1024 google image then converting it to a dds file. Then to an ace file. The latter is the problem.

I think the tool is the 'ToAce' utility?

I input the dds file from the source Input: I then get a red message stating File load failed. Now I have managed to create an ACE file (how I managed this I don't know) and indeed I can get it to export successfully using the decal blueprint but I never can get it to show up in RS editor mode. I make sure to direct it to the proper decal area, for me people/animals category and Developer\Addon01 - for me. The decal does not show up in the list though.

Anyone get this to work properly?

On the other hand, does anyone know an easier way to get google images into your routes than this the long process through decals, etc.?
