RenderDoc can be used as an image viewer! If you drag in or use file → open, you can open images in a variety of formats - .dds, .hdr, .exr, .bmp, .jpg, .png, .tga, .gif, .psd. It gives the necessary info we need about what format a texture is RenderDoc designed to handle GPU formats, can be used as a Texture Viewer for dds So future updates to Paint.NET will use its own Bundled version if that then becomes newer than the one you manually installed.

Fingers crossedĪlso the Paint.NET DDS FileType Plus plugin has been updated, you can still install this in FileTypes\ as Paint.NET will use either the Bundled version, or a manually installed version of the same plugin, and it will use the most recent whichever is newer of the two. Hopefully it will all be enough to help Irfan get the viewer up to date in viewing every dds format and the "Information" to help us find the original texture format, before working on it and saving it out in the correct format for its use case by the games concerned. I also gave a run down of each of those with errors generated by the current IrfanView, whether they load / partial load / load elongated / do not load / correct Compression information given or not blah blah. At his request I made a load of different texture types (with / without alphas / normal / diffuse / specular etc), and then saved out duplicates of each in all the different formats with MipMaps. I have been in email conversation with Irfan, who has said "No promise"īut he may be tentatively looking into supporting all the newer DirectXTex DDS formats. Watch out for updates to IrfanView in the future and the History of Changes PS - When choosing the compression mode in PDN, Slow = Fine (More accurate) (Fine as in Intel Texture Works definition of the compression mode)Īnd have a read of this topic - Its a bit old now, but still relevant I think. Use the drop down menu to select the DDS formatĪnd dont forget to tick the box for Generate MipMaps You will then be presented with the Save Configuration
Lossless and lossy, I havent used it yet but it sounds like its better than PNG and JPG for website performance.Īnd use the drop down menu to select the DDS filetype (Another plugin bundled which was also programmed by null54)

Source for the plugin (where any issues found need to be reported) on GithubĮdit : Please feel free to copy this post on the various official CK forums (I am no longer a member) PDN is now at version 4.2.5 and includes the latest dds plugin (further updated work since 4.2.2) dds files are loaded and saved without any renaming of extensions dds2 extension name which was a bit of chore if you had many files to work with - Now it is officially bundled with PDN. PDN now bundles a plugin made by null54, it used to be necessary to rename any dds file to work with to have a. Load it up in Paint.NET, and then save it out in the desired dds format.

Tell them to grab the latest Paint.NETĮven if they prefer working in something else like Affinity Photo or GIMP, but lack the ability to easily save out a dds file with mipmaps in the newer dds formats (GIMP has started supporting dds natively, but does not currently have all the newer formats) - Just save resulting work from your preferred graphics software to a lossless format like PNG.
#Dds plugin for paint.net mod#
If you know a Mod Author working on textures, who needs a solution to load and save in the newer Intel Texture Works dds formats like BC7, but they dont / cant afford to own Photoshop.
