Non blurring GUI's?

[Squiddle]

How would I make the GUI blurr when I post it as a JPG? I want to do this, because when I import my brand new GUI into the game, it blurrs and looks messy. Is there anyway to fix this?

JPG just makes it blur due to crap quality, I'd say your doing so by using a less complicated program such as paint to save it.

And, no you can't really fix it, but attempt to repair it in say, photoshop.

You could always just use a bmp instead, the filesizes would be huge but alot nicer quality.

[Dark Crusade]

Use Paint.NET to save GIF. The Quality is perfect (I'm pretty certain), and the filesize is tiny.

if you have source then u can edit the type of file to a bmp and then your GUI wont have to be a jpeg or a gif file, if you need  help just PM me.

But that's the problem guys, if I save it in any other format it will not load. And I don't have source =(. Does photoshop have a free trial? How much does it cost?

[Zarnick123]

ill edit a client for you to change to a specific extension. what kind do you want?

[Squiddle]

Not sure what you mean, Yes I am an idiot XD. Wait, do any of you know how to convert te game to the source version without wrecking the game?

[Zarnick123]

well just tell me what kind of picture file is it? jpeg, bmp, GIF
cuz i can make you a client that reads those for your pictures

[Squiddle]

I'll take BMP, please, but how would you do that without me having to restart the client?

[Zarnick123]

what version is it? you just put my client in place of urs

[Marsh]

Eclipse will already read bmp jpg and gif it reads the files and loads it depending on what extension it is.

[Zarnick123]

actually the miragefrm background is hardcoded to get a jpg, trust me i had to change it this morning

It is Eclips Evolution version 2.7, and BMP format. But how will you do that without deleting all of my sprites and items?

Calm down, it will just replace your client.exe, nothing else. He isn't going to rape your items and sprites… he is editing the client remember? Not the graphics.

Ok, thanks =).

How long will it take though?
