Interesting.I just did my own quick test ... converted 1 out of 3 livery (png) files to a dds with Gimp plugin .Had to flip the image vertically before converting. I changed liveries with the dialog , and the 2 png files took several seconds to change , the dds changed instantly.I saw no difference in quality , but the load time was impressive.The original png file is 158.6 KB , the dds is 16.8 MB.This should swell fgdata significantly , unless Tim does (hopefully) does the /Aircraft split... Cheers
