Hi there!
I have a question about the PVR textures used in Shenmue.
It's more like a question about PVR textures in general, but since it has something to do with my work on Shenmue and since I don't really know where I could ask something like this... oh well, let's get to the question.
How can I turn an image into a PVR while keeping the transparency of the background?
For the explanation:
I was working on the PVR files that have the text of the start menu of the game. I recreated them with german text and swapped them with the originals for my little translation project. It took some tries but I managed to get it to work. The only problem is that they have white background surrounding them now, because the transparency is missing.
I made the new files as PNG without a frame but once I save the files als PVR with the PVR output plug-in the transparency is gone. I tried all save options of the plug-in and also tried to save the PVR from a GIF but nothing helped. I always ended up with having a white background.
