[TEC] dds files - UMark

Reece · 03-25-2007, 08:10 AM

Files such as the UMark.dds, what format is dds, is it a Directdraw surfacefile, if so how do I convert SH3 tga files to dds?

Thanks.

Hi Reece,

take a look here --> http://developer.nvidia.com/object/dds_utilities.html

There you´ll find all the goodies to work with dds.

Hope i could help.

Thanks I'll give it a go, I tried one converter but the dds format is only 24bit, not 32 but wow the files are huge, one I started with (including Alpha) was 4 meg, but the generated file was 72meg!!

would this be correct?

What are you trying to do with the UMark? that sounds very very big to me.

UMark was an example.

I will PM you.
