The difference between the three main dds compression formats is about RGB compression level and grey-scale depth of the alpha layer:

DX1 = 1:8 compression ratio, 1 bit alpha layer (B/W)
DX3 = 1:4 compression ratio, non-dithered 1 x 4 bit alpha layer (16 levels of grey)
DX5 = 1:4 compression ratio, dithered 6 x 4 bit alpha layers

See the following article for further detail:

If you want to be sure about compression level and mip levels of an eisting texture, I suggest you using the following simple tool:

Thank you very much, gap.

I get an error 1721 (installer error) when I install the AMD app. Do you have the tool installed, gap? Could you check a file for me, please?

I'd like to assign hotkeys to "Estimate range to contact" and "Report fix via dead-reckoning". How would I do that?

I tried adding a hotkey in data/Cfg/Commands.cfg to

Code:

[Cmd487]
Name=Estimate_range_to_contact
Contexts=1
MnID=0x3F280002
Key0=0xC0,C,"Ö"
HasDelayedExecution=Yes

but when i press that, I get a precise distance ("Range to target is 2950 !") instead of the nice new rough estimate that i get, when i click the menus sonarman -> sonar -> estimate range to contact ("Sonar: Estimated contact range is 2700m").

So I guess, the Commands.cfg is the wrong place to put the hotkey.

And i don't have any idea where to put a hotkey for "Report fix via dead-reckoning" at all.

I use NewUI and RealNav Version 7.1.0

I see then...Have you tried to use TDW options file editor, there is one options which should effect just what you ask(time delays tab, second line)?

@Dermeister

Go here - C:\Users\User\Documents\SH5\data\cfg\main.cfg
open this with notepad
look for and change to this :-

[DEVELOPING]
Modding=Yes
MenuEditor=no
DebugScripts=Yes

save and run game

Now when the freeze happens - you should see a script error window on your desktop - copy and paste it here for TDW to see
