Is that even possible with .dds files? Or did he use another format? I've seen some leaderheads using other file formats, but never thought about using anything else than dds.
DDS is interchangeable with other graphic formats given the right utility programs. For example I can export DDS to TGA, save it as a 6/12 quality JPG, then convert that back to DDS and it will be a lot smaller I believe (though I haven't actually tried doing that yet so I could be wrong; I was just assuming that's what Avain did heh). Interesting that he also reduced the number of textures... I didn't know that.
But yeah I have a fair number of custom graphics in my mod at this point, and I use Photoshop for everything, so I go back and forth between DDS and TGA all the time.
