disgusting Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 this plugin seems super useful, but i've hit a snag in my intended usage trying to create a lod spray to use in tf2, and this guide video says to save the intended images as .dds files with specific settings, none of which are present in my installation of paint.net what gives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null54 Posted November 4, 2023 Author Share Posted November 4, 2023 12 minutes ago, disgusting said: what gives That video was made for a very old version of Paint.NET, the DDS plugin that it used was replaced with this one in Paint.NET 4.2.2. Not all of the settings shown in the old plugin are present in this plugin, the two plugin use different code for DXT compression and mipmap resizing. Mapping the common options shown in your screenshot: DXT5 (Interpolated Alpha) is the same as BC3 (Linear, DXT5). The Error Metric section should be identical between the two plugins. The SuperSampling resampling mode has been replaced by Cubic. 1 Quote Plugin Pack | PSFilterPdn | Content Aware Fill | G'MIC | Paint Shop Pro Filetype | RAW Filetype | WebP Filetype The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need to use another tool to convert the .btx files to DDS before loading them into Paint.NET.

I plan to eventually support loading mipmaps and cube maps as layers, once the Paint.NET plugin API adds the features that I need for it. Hi, I was wondering if the Paint.NET plugin API has received support for having plugins create their own layers recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
