How do I resize textures in Sandbox

Post by thorneakavar »

I have been progressing fast with this software and just cant seem to figure out how to resize the textures. when I hit F2 I can see the scaling. I am still using placeholder textures for my project, but they are too large for what I am applying them to, is there anyway to resize the textures without having to make a new texture and reapply them?

Resize 'em? Go into their folders and edit the textures.

So I actually need to pull them up in Photoshop and change the scaling then?

you could do it in any picture editing program that allows for rescaling, so even MS Paint would work.

which IRC? Mibbit, or the x-chat thing (which I don't have)?

EDIT: never mind, found it. I've used that before, just didn't look like it worked for me.
