Texture Editing?????

[Guest]

What program do you use to edit/make textures? (Please link)

Paint.NET is free and seems to be pretty user friendly for me, I don't have a link for it. There's some specific settings you need to save the textures, I can't remember them offhand and haven't reinstalled Paint.NET yet to look.

Thanks, though I found out after posting this that Paint.net can open DDS files. Had no idea...

The GIMP is free and there are dds plugins available.

 

Personally, I use Photoshop but that's an expensive toy but it has the best support for the nvidia dds plugins.

 

Never tried Paint.NET but some friends have sworn by it.

I had Gimp and loaded the dds plugins, but it still ouldn't open the files, then again I had no idea what I was doing, never used GIMP before and spent 20mins before giving up and swapping to Paint.NET which seemed very idiot friendly for the sort of basic minor work I wanted to do.
