    Resolved [RESOLVED] Can .jpg files be used for texture mapping in OpenGL?

    Hi,

    I have read some openGL texture mapping examples from the NeHe openGL website. The texture mapping examples and other code which needs texture mappings all use bitmap files. (.bmp extension)

    Can I use .jpg files instead?

    I have tried renaming the .jpg files into the .bmp extension but the code taken from NeHe OpenGL gives an error.

    Best bet would probably be to get a jpg to bmp converter. Google it.
