I've found that ImageMagick could help:
1a. Open Command Prompt - Win+R (Windows emblem key together with R) - cmd - Enter.
1b. Navigate to where your files are: first switch the disc with (disc letter) - : - Enter; then with cd (directory/folder).
2. Separate channels into files:

Code: Select all

convert FontMsg.png -channel RGBA -set colorspace RGB -separate FontMsg.png
3. Edit them with editor of choice; save as 8-bit grayscale PNGs (if asked).
4. Combine them back:

Code: Select all

convert fontmsg-0.png fontmsg-1.png fontmsg-2.png -alpha set fontmsg-3.png -channel RGBA -combine FontMsg.png


As for re-importing:
1. Manually copy a part of FontMsg.tex header in hex editor, from start to right before 89 50 4E 47 (or \x89PNG, as C guys know it)
In FontMsg.tex case it will be:

Code: Select all

81 01 40 00 00 1B 36 1A 00 00 03 C0 00 00 03 C0
2. Save the result as FontMsg.tex
3. Try QuickBMS for reimport: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=22
4. Then try the game itself.

Maybe you'll have to navigate to ImageMagick install folder too, i.e. instead of just "convert" - "C:\Program Files\ImageMagick\convert.exe" for example

Heck if I know. Someone does know, but it requires downloading Visual Studio 2013 and compiling it.

Ok, I see where I've messed up: "convert" expects RGB (24 bit or full colour)/RGBA (32 bit or full colour+alpha) input to combine everything the way it should be.
Resave FontMsg-0/1/2/3.png as 24 or 32 bit, then try again

Code: Select all

convert fontmsg-0.png fontmsg-1.png fontmsg-2.png -alpha set fontmsg-3.png -channel RGBA -combine FontMsg.png
