Hi, Iīve downloaded a DDS converter, and Iīve tried to convert a .bmp file to a .dds in order to use in my modīs main menu, but when I press the "convert" button, it gives me this message:

Conversion from [BMP] to [DDS] using [nvDXT] started...
Error: [picture.BMP] size=not a power of 2
Conversion has failed

Total:1
Buffer use:0.3%
Success:0
Failure:1

I use DDS Converter 2.1. I have no idea why it doesnīt work. :confused:

Please, can anyone help? :(

Use DXTBmp. Far better.

compression (dtx*) only works on ^2 sized images. Resize it, or just don't use compression. The Gimp + dds plugin can do it all.
