euuh ... thats a plug in ... .. my release is a :handsdown: "tool" :handsdown:...

you only need the "tool" to "convert" it no photoshop ect ect ...


thats why i released it :)

Download it, and see yourself ... no need for a photoshop or other desing programs..

But, if you mean, i need to add this link :P i will update the post

Photoshop is an editior for images and etc, deadp00l just put the plugin for it to run .dds files, by the way .dds is a very popular format in game development, so there will be much freeware editors for it(Photoshop costs a bit much $$).

hmmmmm interesting that your saying it costs ..... im pretty sure you aint paid for it .... much like almost everyone here


ild suggest using the plug-in though ....

ok, i think you don't understand my points of this release ...


whit this program, you can event make a picture that was made on PAINT

to dds

it just a converter ... not a plugin or photoshop itself ...

Stupid way?let's say, i want to use GIMP to edit textures, i would need a plugin for GIMP, which don't exist and wont(According to what Nivida says), i will need a converter to convert from dds to png, then back png to dds, that's the point.
It's vital for this :)

Who said i didn't pay for photoshop?
I am talking about official/licensed use, it's easy to grab an illigal download and use it freely, but what if you were kindly caught?or even, are you goin to make any commercial thing with a pirated version of the program?
I got a licenced version of Photoshop :),I got Visual studio 2008 professional from Microsoft DreamSpark :), and i use an unregistered beta version of 3dsMax 2010 :).

Best,
