High Resolution Targas

So, i'm pretty close to figuring it out, and thru the process I have managed to break the game in an unusual way.

The map loads white washed, seems only to be 4 colors, black, white, green and I think red.
Its soo trippy to walk around the map with only black and white, but the 512 targa I was testing is no longer causing errors.

Here is the trippy screenshot


anyhow we are in the lab cooking up the next big fix

Gawd, I hope you figure this out!

Update: I am able to force load map with a 512 x 512 Targa. The game currently doesn't know how to handle them, so it crashes on render.

If I start the map with player looking away from texture, it loads, as soon as a single pixel tries to load it crashes. I am real close, just need to figure this program out to find the return call to the function that sets the eax register to 0 b4 the error call. If ya know how get on and take a look.

2nd UPDATE:
Got it to load the 512 targa!, now to come up with a patch!
I'm hoping the repeat uvs on the texture is caused by the texture not being built into the materials.dat

3rd UPDATE:
Yeah it was WC needing the materials.dat updated, but, unfortunately WC complains of the 512 X 512 targa and will not apply the uv mappings, so I Tricked it into thinking the Targa is 256 x 256 and the targa in folder is 512 x 512.

Here is the long awaited screenshot!


I know, I know I could've picked a better image to test with but I thought it would be kewl at the time! LOL

Does the alpha layer still work?

PS: you should have done Doc Brown from Back To The Future.

That last part confused me. Please explain.
