Don't really get what your asking michiuf.

You can save .dds out of photoshop by choosing it from the save as...menu.

You will need to have the Nvidia plug-ins installed.

Don't really understand I'm afraid.

Looking at the picture you posted the wheel looks to be missing information that is needed for the alpha channel....

The way I would do it is put an alpha channel on the .tga file, then when it is saved to .dds the alpha channel info is there.

There may be another way to do it - I don't know. I've not really messed about with any graphics work recently so only know about making the .tga and converting it to .dds.

Hi guyS !

I have no idea how and where I have to save some graphical files like this:
Example:
frame_merckx_quickstep_tt_s
frame_merckx_quickstep_tt_n
frame_merckx_quickstep_tt_d
frame_merckx_quickstep_tt

Please tell me in which folder I have to save it and in which format.

LOTS OF THANKS !

It should be Cyanide/PCM2010/CM_textures/equipment/frames but i´m not 100% sure. For 2010 they have to be saved as DDS files.
 
victorbafa
OK, I'll try it !

What name I've to put in the document ?

Hi,
I have the same problem with saving dds...
It´s not the problem to save it in Photoshop. But I got no helmet in game and I think, it´s because of the nvidia dialog after clicking "Save" in Photoshop...

Please, can somebody post his settings of the following dialog?
THX!

Change the top option to 8.8.8.8 ARGB 32bpp / unsigned.

This is the one I use. You can probably use others too.
