Althaia Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 (edited) I'm using the asari ryder mod and I wanted to make the body color match the color of her face. I found the asari naked model texture (I assume every asari uses Peebee's naked body texture), exported it and tried to open the DDS file with paint.NET. But, I get an "There was an unspecified error" message. I've been editing face DDS files just fine with pN before, so I don't know why I get this error now. Any ideas? Edit: Never mind. I figured it out. Edited April 4, 2018 by Althaia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKobi Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Old topic, but if you could tell what you figured out and how you fixed it, may help other Members who end up with the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althaia Posted May 6, 2018 Author Share Posted May 6, 2018 Oh, sorry about that. After trying everything, I felt a bit silly for not noticing the "Benji TexHelper" program from the mods section. It converts the DDS files to .png, so the paint.NET can open them. https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/427 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerDulann Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 There's a DDS plugin for paint.nethttps://github.com/dtzxporter/FileTypeDDS Same for GIMPhttps://code.google.com/archive/p/gimp-dds/downloads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Althaia Posted May 7, 2018 Author Share Posted May 7, 2018 (edited) I have that plugin and I've been using DDS files for other projects with paint.net just fine. It was only some on MEA DDS files (not all) that refused to work. I read from the net that some DDS files from games are sometimes "locked". But they're working nicely now.
