Texture sizes?

[Canderis]

Will kotor accept any texture sizes? Im not talking about making really high res stuff that would lag the game but I have a texture that is 1024 by 819 and I was wondering if it would work because people seem to only use multiples of 512 and stuff...

hmm i did a bit of experimenting with sizes and got varying results. It also depends on what image editing program you use.

yea same, it just scales normally. Some programs adapt the colours so it doesn't appear blurry but I got some interesting results when I went to high, such as crashes and invisibility.

In my experience i have used up 4096 texture size in this game but it has to be the powers of 2 meaning 512 x512 1024 x 1024 any thing not even will slant horribly in game

I've used a few odd sizes (like 768x768, 670x670, or 710x710), and they work just fine. Mind you, I usually only work on characters (a few weapons here and there), and the uvw maps for those always seem to work with square tgas. I don't know what model you'd be using a rectangle (1024x819) for, so I don't know if it would cause any problems.

On this subject, I noticed that some people here such as Drewton and TriggerGod are able to take textures and not only double the size but double the detail. I was wondering if anyone could share this method as there are quite a few textures I would love to improve if I had the chance.
