Using TexView
By kalasnikov471
Now it is time to convert our image into a format that can be understood by Operation Flashpoint/Armed Assault.
1. Start TexView.
2. Click File and Open.
3. Locate the image we are using and press "Open".
The image will now load in TexView and will look like in the screen shot. If it doesn't, it means you've done something wrong.
Note: TexView does tend to crash when you are opening/saving files and you want to browse to another folder so the best ting to do is open images with TexView by right clicking them and selecting “Open with” and “TexView”. For saving files the best thing to do is to save them in the folder that TexView open by default and then moving the images to a different folder in Windows.
4. Click File > Save As
5. Give the file a name or leave the current one and at the end of the name type “.paa” so in my case it would be “MyTGA.paa” because .paa is better at handling transparent textures in ArmA/OFP than the other format, .pac.
And that’s it, the texture is now ready to use in ArmA/OFP.
