Rewrote new textures into .dat, but file is to large.

[Neville]

I've been trying to just change the Dreamland background to have my school logos for a tournament we'll be hosting, but as I get the new GrOp.dat, It's at 1,573 KB instead of the 642 to overwrite it in GCR.

I have my TPL / PNG for my texture, and the offset I'm using is 109248. I'm unsure of where I'm going wrong.

Where are you getting that offset? Use Steelia's stage texture packs.

I was using the DAT texture wizard, and that's what it told me. Clearly I had no idea what I was doing I guess.

Even with that his filesize tripled. The image its trying to add is the wrong type/size and way too large Id assume.

No idea about the offset I was using, but looking at that list, it worked perfect.

EDIT: I found the answer to my question I was going to ask. Thank you though.

That value you used was the decimal conversion of 0x1aac0. I'm assuming it was treating that as a hex number when you went to insert it into the file, though, meaning it was pasting your bg at offset 0x109248, which would make the file much larger. Idk.
