hi i started to do some texture work and wanted to export the dds files. i use the nvidia photoshop plugin. i dont have the commandline version.
i struggle to find out which format is the ATI1 for the opacity maps...the plugin does not list it under that name.



can you point it out for me?

Just use DXT5, you need alpha channel for opacity, you could use DXT3 but DXT5 gives smoother result.

Angrypig suggested to use other software to make opacity map, I used AMD' Compressonator to make it.

ATI1 format is missing in the NV texture tools for the photoshop. You can use the command line version or use AMD compressonator.
