Alhexx' Heavy Metal FAKK2 TEX Format Description 1.0

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
First, I've got to mention that this description is based
on the  source code from the FAKKTools by Ritual
Entertainment, Inc. (qfiles.h)

If you want to have the C++-Types, download FAKKTools.
(e.g. from http://www.fileplanet.com)

(BTW: This is going to be one of my shortest descs...)

This format is very simple. Let's just take a look at the
header:

struct ftx_s
{
   int   width;
   int   height;
   int   has_alpha;
};

As you can see, it only consists of 12 Bytes.
A 4-Byte Int telling you the width and one telling you the
height. Usually the width is the same as the height.
has_alpha is a 4-Byte Integer telling you if the Texture
uses the Alpha-Channel (if not, the alpha channel is set
to 0xFF)

The Pixel Data itself is stored as a 32Bit RGBQuad.

Oh, and if I can remember well, you'll have to mirror the
image horizontally... or not? Don't remember, sorry.
