Texture File Support #5

Open lrpsantiago opened 10 years ago

lrpsantiago commented 10 years ago

Currently, our engine only supports textures in BMP format, which is good, but not enough, because it doesn't support color opacity (alpha channel). The ideal target to an engine should be support as many file formats as possible. This is commonly made converting them in a new file format, only comprehensible to the own engine. But let's keep it simple, we don't have to do this now, and we probably won't need this for a long time. So I'd like to propose a change in our texture file support, from BMP to PNG files. I don't know how complicated this could be, but this should be a great improvement on our library.
