Hello! this it is my first post!  
I want to create a Fist Person adventure with WME and I have a few problems overalls with regard to the capacity of the files.
will it accept (in a new version) the JPG format? Because a little SPRITE with PNG, TGA or BMP cannot have less than 6mb, and in a complete game that is too much

Congratulations for the parser, it is brilliant!
Bye

I'll probably add JPG support soon, but be aware that due to the lossy compression, JPG pictures are NOT suitable for images with transparent areas! i.e. you'll be able to use them for backgrounds, but not for scene objects/actors etc.

THANKS for the update in the new version!!! It is realy helpull

No problemo. It can help some games to significantly reduce their size.

I've had good luck with TGA images. Seems like they tend to be smaller, yet without the lossy compression of JPEGs.

Hi Mnemonic !!

Now I have a similar problem than before but with music; the ogg really compress audio, but for Music I prefer to use in some scenes the MIDI files (less than 20kb). It will be implemented in the future??

Thanks for all!

Yes, it's already on my ToDo list.

It really depends on the contents of the image. TGA's use wery simple compression and when it comes to photos or rendered images, they cannot match JPGs.
