dfacto Posted January 11, 2012 Share Posted January 11, 2012 Well, the dds is just one purple color, so that wouldn't work of course. If you're saving out a texture and it comes out like that perhaps the plugin is corrupted? Try reinstalling it or saving to tga and converting to dds with one of the available converters. Also check that there's nothing weird going on in your psd. Is there a purple layer of that color in your psd perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroxAlpha Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 (edited) Ok ok. I found the problem! When I open the DDS in Photoshop, the texture is open in sRGB profile color. But Photoshop converts the texture from sRGB to Adobe RGB (I've assigned this in Photoshop by default because I edit photos and I need use Adobe RGB). Then the textures save with this profile color and Nvidia's plugin doesn't work properly with this profile. Solution, when I open the DDS, force Photoshop to ask me for the profile color to use. And in this window select the profile embedded in the texture than will be sRGB. The screen is in Spanish, but can help.http://i43.tinypic.com/1zcjss2.jpg dfacto, thanks to you I have seen the problem. =) Edited January 11, 2012 by ZeroxAlpha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
