Hi,
Whenever I try to open a texture.bmp file of an original FS2004 aircraft, I get an error msg. Saying Drawing failed.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem, as I would like to give some aircraft a "facelift"
thanks.

You'll be needing DXTBMP no matter what method you're using. Get it here:

I second thatazabro, the drawings are currently in the wrong format, you need to convert them using the program Tailhook suggested before you can view and edit them. Wink
