Hey everyone i am trying to paint my own plane, i can get the textures into the editor and re paint them and save them but then once i see them back in fs they come out all blurry, why is this?

Could be several reasons - you do not say if you are using DXTBMP.exe to reconvert the bmp files from your photo editor, to extended bmp's.

If you are then, take the option - Save without MIPS

There could be other reasons but difficult to tell with the information given.

i use the DXT progrma as mentioned above and edit the textures in either adobe photoshop or just ms paint
