When i paint my sign ( in Shootmania), it looses a lot on the edges.
i made it in ratio 3x1
1024x341
Is that a bug, or should i keap in mind to stay away from the edge?

Thanks.
Kinda hope Nadeo is gonna fix that, so complete picture is shown as made.
But again thanks for answer

This won't evolve and it is really "fixed". this is not a work-around but how it works.

The format of those screens is 3x1 and the format of .dds is multiple of 2, that means 2x1 or 4x1.
To make a 3X1 image use a 4X1 space, we have 2 options :
-Pre-stretch the 3X1 to anticiapte the distortion on the screen
-scale it keeping proportions, loosing space on borders.
This is just like using a square image as you desktop background.

We choosed the proportions conservation option.

Ok i will try to do that, TY Fix
So we always will be working wit borders?
And why is it different then as TM2 Canyon, why not make it same for every item in Maniaplanet.
Tought Maniaplanet is a platform with same work, so if you build something it works the same way.
Or are you gonna change the signs in TM2?
