ehm - i got an error with this...
first of all - i use a modified (by me) AdmiralMod (works 100% fine)
and i wanted to change the background... i follow your tut and when i start up cod2 this comes up

Error during initialization:
Create2DTexture( wm_background, 1, 1, 0, 894720068 ) failed: 8876086c = Invalid call

what is this??
wm_background is the modified background from admiralmod - but i never see this one - i only used this becouse the normal background_american_w isn't anymore in the admiral mod... i tried to copy it in and changed the gsc for both...but nothing happens....
only this error with both...
maybe my picture is wrong??
i haven't used photoshop for it - i use Paint.net ... but there is the dds plugin too (and its for free :) )

hope somebody can help!!

ehm - *push*

Paint.NET (freeware) has build-in DDS support

i don't like PakScape at all, WinRAR and 7zip can do better

i'm not sure what u want to say xD but ok i will try paint shop pro for this - but isnt it the same way to make a dds file??
I used winrar for packing!

sorry, i didn't see you post.

the problem might be in the DSS export settings. you should use DXT1, 3 or 5. I'm not sure about the compression-options, hopefully doesn't matter.

what are your Asset Manager settings for the texture? HUD elements require type 2D as far as i remember.

Did you use RAR or ZIP compression for the IWD?

ok - the 1st page of this tutorial got a link to the output dds settings - but i think the link is dead!Maybe some 1 have the settings for me?!
I dont use the asset manager becoz in this tutorial is written that i've to use the ddstoiwi converter - and i did ^^
first i use zip compression and then rename it to iwd - but i think thats not the problem... i modified our clan mod succesfully :) edited weapons and the hud and so on!

hell yeah ^^ got it to work - but.... pic looks very strange - so pixilated ^^ i tried it with the asset manager :) and that works!

got it to work now ^^ if the pic is pixilated you have to deactivate mipmaps in PaintShop Pro - now it looks good :)
