Is there a way to change the rendering device LevelEdit uses after you install? When I reinstalled it, I accidentally chose 16-bit color instead of 24, and now it crashes everytime I try to change it back (View > Change Device) because the device is in use when it's trying to change it, but there's no way that I've found to change it outside of LevelEdit....anyone know?
And reinstalling doesn't do it either, the option doesn't pop up at startup.

By the way 18 is 24 in binary if you didn't know. You may need it if your changing to 24 bit as that registry entry is going to be in binary format. Likewise 10 is 16 bit in binary.
It is pretty safe to do, the worst that you could do is probably screw up Leveledit, nothing a reinstall wouldn't fix. Well at least it isn't like my old 56K modem, On their support site it said editing the registry to mute your modem would void the warrenty. "Using any alternative ways to lower the volume of the data/voice modem can void your warrenty" and that was using the veloume control on the modem that didn't turn it off when it dialed.

Even in photoshop it looks black, just a black tile. You need to zoon in 300% to see any detail on it. I'd get a better texture to use. Also 24 bit doesn't work for me either. I tested it on a GeForce 2 MX 400 and a GeForce 4 Ti 4200 bothe have errors like yours. I say it is a bug in LvelEdit.

Yeah, that texture's not the greatest, but my brightness is probably higher than yours, so it doesn't look all black.
Anyway, I guess it is just a bug, then :S
