Armadillo Run forum

I am trying to make the background of all the levels the picture in my signature, but whenever I try, it turns out horribly skewed, is there anyway I can put it in, or is it a lost cause?

Hmmm... I see that the original background pictures have height 1024pix, width 2048 aso. I dont know. Just an uneducated guess. You can use photoshop to achieve that ie. Personally I would have made the picture more pale and or vague. The elements in armadillo would be difficult to see and overview could be lost due to the strong/dark colours.

edit: yup: "The width and height of the image must both be a power of 2 (e.g. 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, ...). " ( http://armadillorun.com/documents/manual.html )

your picture is "a power of" something like 1,64 (598/352), not 2

Double-hmm! I tried to make my own backgrounds myself. They just come out as totally white/empty. I tried both with jpg and png
Arg! WHY?

They do work but the game makes them 3D so you need the right viewpoint.

I dont get it. changing view does not make them visible.

thank you for the help
