Reeveseye Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) Ive been enjoying Starfield and many of the mods for that game lately, and Id like to try my hand at texture modding. The game uses DDS files for textures. Im very good with Photoshop, which is the program Id use to create my custom textures, but I need to be able to export them in DDS format thats compatible with the game. Does anyone know of a Mac-compatible Photoshop plug- in that would allow this? Or barring that, is there a free or reasonably priced program I could use to open, edit, and save the DDS files? Thanks in advance for any advice. Edited October 18, 2023 by Reeveseye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0xC0000005 Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Fnordware has a DDS plugin for Mac: https://fnordware.blogspot.com/2014/09/dds-plug-in-for-after-effects-and.htmlThe plugin does not support some of the newer DDS formats that Starfield uses (e.g. BC7), and I don't know if it works with current versions of Photoshop. Microsoft's DirectXTex library should build on Mac/Linux, but the included sample programs are Windows-only.Intel's DDS plugin for Photoshop appears to be Windows-only.

OneEyeAskew Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 The Fnord link above no longer works, so replying here in the hopes that someone knows of another solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is indeed a MacOS download for it -- https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ I've only ever used the GIMP on Windows and Linux, though.
