    Its in ARGB8 format not D.X.T.5. Saving it is not so much the problem as converting back into IWI is. There are no converters out right now that can convert ARGB format. So until someone makes one, modding things like card titles and background images are not possible. At least not on the steam version anyways. aIW doesnt have to have it be the same and it still works.

    On alteriwnet you dont really have to worry about CRC fixing. afaik, aIW does not have purity checks. But just in acse, have you tried the iw_26 thing? I think its called iPaddies exploit, but there have been things around like it for a while, so idk if its actually his. Pretty much just make a new empty iwd, and put your textures into it, and name it iw_26 and the game will use those instead of the originals.

    You may need to check the numbers though, because im not positive if its 26 or not. Im just doing this off the top of my head.

    Because they are not supposed to be in D.X.T.5. They are supposed to be ARGB8. But if you play aIW, then you can just save them as D.X.T.5, and put them back in. It should work anyways. Im not too learned on how it works for aIW, but without purity checks, in theory it should work.
