If you have Photoshop, just install the VTF plugin. You can edit your texture or decal or whatever, and save it directly as a VTF file without the lame targa middleman stage. soooooo much easier than that stupid vtex tool. {{unsigned|Boddah}}
:Good point. That should probably be put into some sort of material creation page as a note. --[[User:Daedalus|Daedalus]] 02:51, 23 Mar 2007 (PDT)

== Any way to create [[HDR]] textures from [[PFM]]s ''without'' mips? ==

Does anyone know of a way to create HDR textures ''without'' generating mips for them in the [[VTF]]? As mentioned on the page, VTEX’s ''nomip'' option doesn’t actually stop the program from generating the mips and saving them in the VTF, which can become a problem when textures are as large as HDR textures can get (RGBA16161616f is 2.66 MB @ 512x512 px w| mips).

[[VTFEdit]] can’t be used as it only supports ''opening'' HDR textures, not importing them.
