Working on a new mod

Nope, you can resize a picture with GIMP, but in my opinion the picture becomes blurred.

Perhaps I should rework the already made dom2 unit pictures instead?

I did that with MS Paint, and converted them using IrfanView. It works, but takes time.


To do it properly, run DomII in window, put filter off and set opacity to 100%. When I took screenshots this way, all the himans were exactly 32 pixels high, and I don't think I'm that lucky.

And as colors won't be deformed, you can remove two background-blacks, leaving the two shadow-blacks.

In what resolution did you ran?

[Endoperez]

1280x1028, but I tested it at 640xsomething and the result was same. When windowed, DomII seems to default to its "natural" resolution.

Okay, I'll give it a shot.

Unless you change the window size using the command line switch "--res xxx yyy". Make shure you keep the proportions, though

And I would suggest you use Irfanview to resize the pics, too. I don't know about Paint, but GIMP only uses none, linear or cubic interpolation. Irfanview has a whole bunch of different functions which you can try out for best results.
And doing a whole lot of pics with it is even easier - use the batch mode ...

Okay thanks. Infranview is only avaible for winblow, but there's a similiar program I found called XnView or I could run Infranview with crossoveroffice.
