Viewing Methods. How to view DDS files?
To view DDS files, you can use various image viewers or software like Jumpshare's online DDS viewer, XnView, or Paint.NET. Additionally, some image editing software like GIMP and Photoshop, with appropriate plugins or settings, can also open and display DDS files.


i used Gimp to help Fifi with the current version of Dark Waters.

I've been using GIMP now for years.

I'm still on the legacy 2.10 since I wasn't too happy with the interface in the new 3.0 version.

It has a built-in dds capability.

From the info on the GIMP site, the new 3.0 version should be fine with Win-11.

Like I said, I just didn't like the way the 3.0 looked.

"Old Dog," used to his "old ways" I guess. :03:
