I'd love to make cc for the game but I'm stuck without a .dds plug in. Tried installing the NVIDIA plugin about a thousand...ok maybe 10 times in ~~a million~~ various plugin folders of both "program files(x86) and program files (following diff instructions I found on Google for CC 2014). Anyways eventually found out (through Google) that PS CC isn't supported by NVIDIA.

So what I'm asking is there any alternatives... say maybe a dds converter that will allow me to change the file type to a PNG/JPEG/GIF/etc before opening it up in Photoshop & then change it back after I'm done working on it? Any help would be greatly appreciated & thanks in advance. I have a ton of ideas for great custom content but I'm stuck until I can solve this :(

Thanks a lot hun. I will give it a try, however I finally got NVIDIA to work!!!

So if anyone is curious here is a sort of how to from House Party Crasher who wrote in a reply to a thread at TSR forum (source found here):

"I've just gotten the plugin to work and wanted to share with you and anyone else that had issues with this too.

I download the plugin from Nvidia for 64 bit systems and installed it here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Plug-ins.

After installing it created 2 new folders beside the one that was already there, which is empty anyway: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Plug-ins\Generator. The 2 folders it created are: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Plug-ins\Plug-Ins and C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Plug-ins\Presets which both have subfolders of there own.

I've followed the 3dcoat tips and tricks and the problem I had at first was trying to figure out where step #3 "Copy the dds64.8bi file from the CS6 File Formats folder into the existing Photoshop CC File Formats folder" was. Well I found that folder here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2014\Required\Plug-Ins\File Formats and placed a copy of the dds64.8bi file there as well.

I'm not sure what made it work as I have tested it but it is working for me. Oh when testing my file I had to make sure to Save As: 3D3/DDS(*.DDS;*DDS)."

Folowed all the steps she listed along with that of 3dcoats and it works now :yay
