DXTBmp is used to decompile textures that have a reflective Alpha channel fused to them. Don't worry, it isn't as complex as it might sound. Wink

The Alpha channel is what gives each aircraft a reflection. All the default aircraft have it, and most downloadable aircraft as well. Some do not. The ones that don't have it already cannot be modified to accept it, so you'll just have to deal with that.

Anything else, come back and see us.

Happy Flying
