Paint.net has native support for .dds files, without the need for plugins. I find it a lot easier.

Get Paint

Just fixed the url.

Cheers

Paint.net is great if you don't have Photoshop.

For us pirates that do, use this NVIDIA DDS PLUGIN

It's a typing mistake in the tutorial, it should say DDS, and not DSS.

Maybe the tutorial could be edited[wink]

hey no problem, didnt really think i was pointing out error. hehe

But on that tutorial I am confused about the 1024x1024 on the loadscreen size, I did that and the loadscreen comes out WAYYYYY too big, it over laps the screen by almost 3 inches all the way around..
Any idea why?

Which screen are you talking about? The one in your editor or the one that loads up when you're loading the map? If it's the one in your photo editor then just adjust your view percentage (Not sure which editor you're using). If it's the one when you load up your map to play in then I really haven't a clue as to what may cause that. However 1024 x 1024 is the size you need to make it happen.

well in the tutorial it says
Quote:
Step 2
Take your picture or screenshot that you wish to make into your loading screen, resize it to 1024x1024 and resolution must be set to 72.


I am saving the pictures Im editing for the load screen 1024x1024 set to 72 resolution and when its all done and I start the game, the loadscreen picture is HUGE!
