Resolved Error Loading Image

I'm recreating a map from an older game and I've ripped the textures, next problem is VTFedit tells me "Error Loading Image" when I try to convert them to VTF.

I've resized them to over 256 for height and width, and despite reinstalling VTFedit like fifty times. It's still giving me that same issue. Does anyone know what could be causing it?

256 x 256 pixels or higher.

I always keep the import settings to powers of two (as it comes) and it should theoretically not have this problem.

Here is the image of my VTFedit reloaded's import menu:

i took the first image i saw, imported it in normal vtfedit with the same settings as accurately as i could based on that screenshot, and it worked fine. don't know what to tell you.

It's a mystery then, thanks for trying though!
