How to open a DDS normal map ?

Hi all,

I am trying for the first time to contribute, and for a first try, i want to make something easy : just making new textures for cigarettes packs.

 

I am using photoshop and I don't have any problem to open, or to save the diffuse map.

But for normal and specular map, it s not the same : when i open them, i just have a "color noise" picture.

 

Do I have to use another software, or a converter for them ? Or is there other tricks to know ?

 

 

Thanks for your answers.

Thanks for your answers.

 

-> Emil, good trick, I didn't take alook at channel, only layers before. Thanks.

 

-> Perraine, I just installed it, thanks.

 

Tommorow I will should be able to finish my first texture... yeahhhhhh

 

EDIT : still have a lot of work obviously, but at least the 3 channel (diffuse, normal and specular) are working.

thanks guy.
