i am using photoshop cs6 on a mac with a dds plug-in as well (not nvidia because it's a mac). i'm recoloring a hair and whenever i try to import the dds file into s4s, it says i cannot import it because there is no mipmap. i looked a tutorial from someone who used photoshop but they have windows and the nvidia dds plug-in and they are able to generate a mipmap. earlier, i tried changing the dds file to a png file and then the file made the model one whole color. honestly i don't even know what a mipmap is but does anyone know of a way i can properly import a dds file into s4s ? thank you !

hi! I'm not a mac user, but could you share a screenshot of the dds settings you're using? the window that appears just before saving. If you're going to work with .png, then your texture must have only the hair texture and the rest transparent. here's a video guide Feyona did , maybe it can help you out to understand how it should look.

i dont think there is actually a way to look at the dds settings. the only thing about a dds plug-in in my photoshop is information about it (as shown in the pics below). macs are super stressful :(

The settings are in the window that pops up when you save the dds file. This is how it looks on windows:

omg, sorry for not replying sooner. i don't really remember but maybe i forgot to make the file a .dds file which did not allow the .dds settings to show up. hope that helps awkwardhogg
