You need to edit the alpha channel.

 

If you don't have the layer window open, go to Window->Layers at the top.

Click the button that says channels.

Hide the RGB channel and then show the alpha channel. If you don't have an alpha channel, click the icon that looks like a piece of paper.

 

Black = transparent

Gray = semi-transparent

White = opaque

 

 

Make sure you save the .DDS with alpha on.
