hiya,
i have just figured out how to download the custom levels from midnight nutters. most of them work fine but on some there is an error saying something about custom textures and i cannot access that level-i need to press esc which turns the whole game off. i have tried deleting and then reinstalling the custom textures but it still happens-any one know whats going on?

Some custom textures are not sized correctly, so they cannot be displayed on certain video cards (like Nvidia). You will need to resize each texture so it is 64 x 64 pixels.

There is a free online utility that can do this here:

Be sure to replace the resized files in the same folder using the same name as the original files.

I forgot about that one. Ideally the textures should be made 64x64 in the first place so the user doesn't have to change them.

I hope I didn't do this with any of my textures!

- by the way, welcome to the forum!

I've never experienced any problems with your custom textures Theo.
And I would know, since my PC doesn't like to scale certain size textures.

BTW, you can also size them 128 x 128 without any problems. :wink:
