sorry if this is in the wrong topic...
hello i'm making a game, and right now i have basic models that are just .ac models, and i downloaded the .ac loader and it worked all fine. now that i'm trying to do other stuff, (especially with textures) it's getting a little more complicated. in the .ac loader, does that texture loader ONLY load .rgb files, or anything more? i tried to do it with a transparent .gif, but to no avail. i even tried it with the transparent tree sample, and still nothing worked.

so is there more code i should add to texture.c, is there a .dll file i need to download, or is it just impossible to load those in a real game? (my biggest need is getting a transparent .gif loaded)

thanks
