Hi everyone,
I probably shouldn’t be posting this in the technical problems section, but I was wondering what is the best program for making textures to incorporate into my game? I asked my friend to make a few images for me, so I could use them as textures on some models I’m going to make, but I’m not sure what program he should use. I’m worried if he uses the wrong thing the file type will not be compatible with the engine. Can he use Adobe illustrator?
Thanks
Not familiar with Illustrator personally, I believe it costs money. Maybe look into GIMP 2, that’s what I use. It’s basically the free version of Photoshop.
As far as using the wrong file types, I think you should be fine. Any good image editing program will allow you to save in multiple file types. Any one that can save to a PNG, JPEG, or even BMP should do.
Sweet, we ended up going with Photoshop cause he already had it. Thanks!
No problem. Probably your best bet, has the most support and best features in my opinion.
