How the hell do you convert into 32 bit? My tga textures only seem to go 24 bit and im using GIMP to convert. I need help fast. Dont leave this topic without an answer.

Most textures in RF are 24 bit targa.

Is this for a certain purpose? Like better texture quality?

Anyway found this program to convert to 32 bit. http://files.halomods.com/viewtopic.php?t=280.
If your image has an alpha channel, this wont work. It also might not work with RED either. Don't know though
