Help with DDS files conversion!

fitzcarraldo · 08-20-11, 12:10 PM

Hi, mates: I need some help with DDS conversion. I have Photoshop CS5 for 64 bits, and "installed" the NVIDIA plugin. I write "installed" because the plugin seems installed but nothing appears in Photoshop, as the plugin isn´t installed.

There is some plugin equivalent, o how damn make work the plugin???

I need the conversion for make some graphics improvements in SH4 subs skins...

I have an original Photoshop Creative Suite, and works fine in my W7 Home Premium 64b.

Many thanks and regards.

If you install Paint.NET you can convert DDS to many other formats and vice versa.

There's a program called DXTbmp that can handle DDS conversion as well:

It's designed for MS Flightsim in mind, but it works perfectly well by itself.

This works on mine, XP and VISTA machines. I can't quite remember now how I installed it because this plugin has been on my machine for over a year now and works very well.
