| It's black because you don't have mipmaps. Don't worry about it, it usually shows up in FNV/FO3 anyway.
Also, don't use DXT5 unless you have an alpha map: you doubled your texture memory for no benefit. Stick to DXT1 otherwise. _________________ |

It's simple, you just click on "Save as" and save your file (i'm guessing it's a .dds file). After that this should appear and you just choose DXT5. - Spoiler:
That's it, hope it helps. _________________ |

| @Voivre What version of photoshop do you have? Also, did you install NVIDIA Texture Tools for Adobe Photoshop? This one here: https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-texture-tools-adobe-photoshop _________________ |

This one here:
https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-texture-tools-adobe-photoshop I think that's what Dazzerfong had me delete, but I may be mistaken. _________________ |

| @Voivre: BC3 is the same as DXT5. You chose 'Color + Alpha', so that's all you have. If you want BC1 (or DXG1), you need to select 'Color' only. @mpaz96: I don't use the Nvidia DDS anymore because it doesn't support BC7 and BC5, which FO4 uses. Worse, if you open up a BC5 with Nvidia DDS, it imports it incorrectly: rather than an empty blue channel (as BC5 only contains R and G), it decodes it incorrectly, thus the plentiful array of faded blue normal map imports. So, to summarise into a neat table: | FO3/FNV/Skyrim | FO4 | Normal Map | DXT5/BC3 | BC5 | Diffuse | DXT1/BC1 | BC7 | Diffuse w/ transparency | DXT5/BC3 | BC7 |
Thus, if you want to get FO4 ready, use the Intel Texture Works tool instead. If you don't have Photoshop, you can use TexConv instead. For more info, check this this out. _________________ |

| I had a feeling that the nvidia dds plugin wasn't saving the textures right for FO4, and is this the one dazzer, not really sure if it is - Code:
