...Erhem...
I'm in a spot of trouble with this thing. No directions in sight. Shouldn't this need some kind of enclosed instruction book? I don't want to go tampering with stuff I don't know how to use (as tempting as it would be).
A quick synopsis on HOW to work this thing would be greatly appreciated.~

...Erhem... I'm in a spot of trouble with this thing. No directions in sight. Shouldn't this need some kind of enclosed instruction book? I don't want to go tampering with stuff I don't know how to use (as tempting as it would be). A quick synopsis on HOW to work this thing would be greatly appreciated.~ Run it with no arguments (in a command window so it doesn't close right away). Ok thanks but can I insert tga files or only tpl ? When i tried i could only do TPL. No tga, running texconv isn't that hard file 0 = <file path>
image 0 = 0, 0, <texture type>
texture 0 = 0, xtexture types (stolen for Pharrox's guide) 0: I4
1: I8
2: IA4
3: IA8
4: RGB565
5: RGB5A3
6: RGBA8
8: CI4
9: CI8
10: CI14X2
14: CMPRDon't use CI4 or CI8 as they need a palette, I personally use CMPR (14) (it's like jpg, high compression but low quality). Edit: I found the source for tplx I4 and I8 are grayscale IA4 and IA8 are grayscale + alpha (transparency) RGB565, RGB5A3 and RGBA8 are RGB CI4 and CI8 are indexed (CI4 has a max of 16 colors) CI14X2 is indexed but has a max pallet of 16384... if you ever find one of these just replace it with RGB565 if +1 or RGB3A5 if +2. CMPR is a compressed RGB In order of bpp (bits per pixel) a image can only be repalced by one who's bpp is equal or lower, uness the -g option is used 4 bpp: I4, CI4(+palette), CMPR(average, can have quality of 16bpp if lucky) 8 bpp: I8, CI8(+palette), IA4 16 bpp: I8A, RGB565, RGB5A3, CI14X2(+palette, 14 bpp of quality). 32 bpp: RGBA8 |

what?! I get an "Out of Memory!" message? Can anyone tell me what this means?
Also, could anyone please make some sort of a guide to using the various functions of this program, because the "instructions" are hard to understand.

How much RAM do you have? How large is the file you're trying to insert into?

I tried to insert 2 texture in info_en.pac but when I try to insert it say " Can't isert "31.tpl" in position 31"
In SSBB extract,the number of the texture was 31,so what is wrong ?

From what I gather, you run your usual targa image through TexConv and then use this to insert the resulting tpl file into your pac file.
It's this whole TexConv step that has me confused, I never had to do any of this stuff manually before. xd
