IT07 10 Posted May 27, 2014 Don't waste your time on that .paa tool :) Almost everyone that is into .paa converting is already using something like TexView 2. Which works very well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ins0 10 Posted May 27, 2014 (edited) don't think this is wasted time, i agree that many tools can convert images to dds format on windows but no tool convert them directly online. thanks for your reply :) Edited June 11, 2014 by ins0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ins0 10 Posted May 31, 2014 success - full paa support - upload png/gif/jpg/jpeg files and there get converted to full supported arma paa files (transparency support) :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
micovery 2 Posted May 31, 2014 (edited) Pretty nice! Good job. I have couple of security concerns, and user experience suggestions. 1. Enable HTTPS (Even this forum is using HTTP, so I can't safely use it on public networks) 2. Use OpenID connect, and store minimal amount of personal user information 3. The squad xml URL should be a first class item in the UI experience. Looks like it's tucked away within the members panel.

ins0 10 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) thanks for your feedback 1. Enable HTTPS (Even this forum is using HTTP, so I can't safely use it on public networks) i would love to implement that, but free services are only as good with the users that keeping it alive - currently i can't spend the money for ssl certs.. :butbut: 2. Use OpenID connect, and store minimal amount of personal user information when i feel this service is ackn from the users - i think i implement this. 3. The squad xml URL should be a first class item in the UI experience. Looks like it's tucked away within the members panel. thanks i felt this same! - new squad ui in return :cool: Edited June 2, 2014 by ins0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nevbox 15 Posted June 19, 2014 Looks good, my only gripe would be it doesn't allow direct upload of .paa files. I want this as more of a manager than converter. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ins0 10 Posted June 20, 2014 Thanks for your feedback. What do you mean with this, the only option to upload to each squad also paa files or a section where you can upload all your images and asign these to squads? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
