Question for anyone using GIMP with relation to GP4Builder

When exporting a file to TGA in GIMP, does ticking the 'RLE Compression' box have any effect with relation to GP4Builder? I've had GP4Builder crash a few times when inserting a particular logo, which is making me wonder.

Thanks

I don't know if it's related at your problem, but if I want to import a car shape into GP4 BUilder
all the textures (or tga files) must have an alpha layer. If not, GP4 builder crashes.

I always export files without RLE compression, but I don't know if that's a requirement.

Interesting - in the past I have always done it with RLE compression, however today I did it without for some adverts. I'm also not sure if this is related - but sometimes some logos come out black and white in GP4Builder.

Not sure RLE is relevant but be sure it's a 32bit tga file (with alpha layer). 24bit tga files aren't supported if I remind well...

Black and white issues resolved - had to add an alpha layer, thanks Lo2K.

great
