Torque Constructor texture loading error

by WodzuUK · in Constructor · 03/08/2010 (12:29 pm) · 2 replies

So i've made few buildings in the Torque Constructor and i found out that the textures that come with it are rather simple and there aren't many of them and i decided to get my own textures into the Torque Constructor but i get the following error:

WARNING: The size of 'WoodPainted0169_M.jpg' is not a power of 2


I really need help on this one xD

Your textures should be a power of 2.

This means that the width and height should be one of the following:

1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,2048

The width doesn't have to be the same as the height - for example, a 256x512 texture is find.

In general, use the smallest size texture that you can. Unless it means you need to use more textures.

Example:

one 256x256 texture is faster than one 512x512 texture.

but four 256x256 textures are worse than one 512x512 texture, though they take up the same amount of texture memory.
