P Mac Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Hello all you beautiful modders! I have some awesome renders here (Via Refat, Gamerzone, and Phenomenal modder) that I'm having trouble converting from .png to .dds format so that i can import them into 2k19. Could anyone point me in the right direction or walk me through the process so I know for future reference? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

mattfick Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 photoshop, gimp, or paint.net you will need to install either of those along with the dds plugin for the respective program Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you suppose the issue is in the original png files maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mach3 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 if the mipmaps are on the textures may not show so don't use MIPMAPS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
