hey kids, i thought id bump this up and add a question to it cos im flumuxed!
Ive got 8 frames of .pcx files, as far as i can tell they are 24bit pics and this is what theyre supposed to be

(when i right-click in explorer, properties then click on the summary the bit depth is 24! - im using MGI Photosuite to change formats and it doesnt specify, but i presume this fact means it is OK).

anyways, so in Seditor, i go to create texture:animated, select the 8 .pcx textures, click OK, and I then get this message: Unidentified keyword...(line "texture_16bit NO") or unexpected end of file found.

ok so i took my own advice (see above post and searched the forum, found out about removing the 16bit line, and replacing the null thing with the correct extentions.

so i do this and input a filename for the texture and it doesnt work! is there something else, please help.

what does the 'or unexpected end of file mean? is this a possible reason?
