uhmmm... "bitmap" is a file format from microsoft.
you can make textures from whatever you like. just walk around with a digital camera and make some fotos. And yes , you are able to put them in your game. as floors , ceilings , walls ,...whatever you need them for.

yeah...thats the ticket !

It's also a texture format DBPro supports.

DBPro supports png, bmp, jpg and dds textures. I think the included models use dds textures, so if you wanted to retexture osmething by just renaming a texture to the same name as teh original you'd need a DDS file. However I *think* its possible to rextuer an object with any texture.
