I'm looking for a .pix-to-.bmp (or other) converter.

Can you help a fellow 'kit-basher' out here?

Also - I have yet to find a decent mesh for the Olympus Corvette. I'm unable to contact Chris Sapiano (at least he doesn't answer my e-mails) to get the model. If anyone has the mesh - I'd be obliged if you'd email it to me.

I've scoured the internet and scrounged through countless game mods without much luck.

I did find one - but it's low-poly and I can't really judge it because the textures are in .pix format.

While I'm at it - I note that some ships are in .psd format - and this is not a PhotoShop file; you vets know what I mean. Anyone have a viewer for that format?

TIA.

Paint Shop Pro is a very useful graphics program I use and will allow you to open and save as a large variety of formats, including pcx and bmp. You open a .pcx file then save as .bmp, will also do batch processing of entire directories.
