Making My Own Faces "not A Valid Bmp"

[timmo567]

hey there! ^_^

I've downloaded and installed a few of the faces and kits avaliable here and there all great

So I've decided to make my own cricket team (real life club team) and put all their faces in ect. But when I try import it into the Kit Replacer it says "Not a valid bitmap" or something along those lines... I've found out that the problem seems to be the DPI. Refer to the picture below. I have photoshop and of course Paint :P

How can I get this value to 96 instead of 71?

have you formated them correctly??

 

[timmo567]

what you do mean by that?

I think that the DPI is the problem. But I have no idea how to change it in photoshop or paint. Is there another program that you guys use that allows you to set it?

Thanks for the quick reply

 

[squiz]

So you haven't formatted it correctly then, theres a tutorial on how to do it

u have to have ur images in 8bit not 24bit, try importing them after decreasing the color depth

 

[timmo567]

In photoshop theres only an 24 and 16 bit option. and in paint it works with 256 colours but it looks horrible

 

[Prakash]

yea u have to convert your files to 8 bit (or 256 colors) bitmap to get imported also remember to filp the image vertically

i just do it in paint and it works fine

 

[timmo567]

yeah but the quality was horrible....

I got it working good though, I saved it as a 256 colour .gif and then opened that in paint and saved it as 256 colour BMP and it kept it's good quality

But now the face only shows up in team management and the GD kit edititor but not in the actual game! Help!
