    Question mip/lump/wad files

    hi!

    i've made a program to read quake's .wad file (WAD2)
    in them, there are textures (MIP/LUMP)...does anyone know how to read them?

    i know this:
    first 16 bytes = name
    next 4 bytes = width
    next 4 bytes = height
    the rest = data...

    the length of the data is aprox width*height*1.33 but i cant figure out why.

    Do you know the quality of the textures quake2 uses? I guess the 'data' after the width & height is gonna be something like bytes representing RGB values. (each ranging from 0 to 255, 8 bytes).

    Sorry i can't give you more help.
