TEXTURES - .png support for the unreal engine?

Post by madspacemarine »




Is there a way to add .png to the file types that are supported for the various versions of unreal engine ?





- I imported textures WITHOUT MIPMAPS


( to have a sharp texture / surface look )


- further with a texture scale of 0.015625





to cover sufficient 2d space the textures need to have a resolution of 8192² or 16384² pixels
