[SOLVED] [Addon Builder] .jpg in binarized .pbo

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

first of all: I'm new to the addon aspect of Arma but experienced with sqf scripting. Here is my question: Is it possible to get a .jpg into a binarized .pbo? When using the Addon Builder from A3 Tools and selecting "Binarize" (for performance apparently) the .jpg files won't get copied. Selecting "Binarize all textures" doesn't make a difference. The pictures have to stay .jpg as I need the aspect ratios and .paa only allows for square ones. Everything is fine when not selecting "Binarize".

 

Thanks,

 

Terra

It seems to be possible because a3 did it too. The editorpreviews_f.pbo contains a folder with .jpg files.

Make sure .jpg isn't being excluded by Addon Builder. 

 

And no, "Use pboproject" isn't the answer to everything.

Thank you very much! I added *.jpg under "Options>>List of files to copy directly". I also have been in contact with mikero and have to say that his tools are not as intuitive as addon builder but that's because of how many options you have. I will keep using both. Addon Builder for simple addons and mikero's tools for more complex projects.
