Are .BMP files accepted as textures?

If it's of any assistance, and I'm sure there are better programs for it than this, you can use Paint.NET to convert images to PNG files of the smallest bit depth possible without losing color or quality if size is a concern for you.

That's what I generally use for converting PNG files to 8-bit for use with RPG Makers 2000+2003, anyway.

I use Paint.NET for some projects, but it’s not necessary here. The application I used to rip the models (AccuTrans3D) allows you to convert the file format for the textures when you export the model.
