The purpose of this plugin is to provide a tool for artists to access superior compression results at optimized compression speeds within Photoshop. I also tried the Legacy 8.31 version, which used to work with PSP X. Intel has extended Photoshop to take advantage of the latest image compression methods (BCn/DXT) via plugin. I also tried installing the 8.51 version…couldn’t find the updated 8.52 version anywhere. I have targeted ALL of those folders in the preferences, to identify where my plugins might be kept. NVIDIA Texture Tools for Adobe Photoshop. I’ve also tried installing it to my user files, in a new Plugins folder, as well as in a new Plug-Ins folder. Ive checked that link before and in the top of the web you can see for what photoshop version is compatible. So I moved the subdirectories out to just inside the Plugins folder. Then I tried installing it to the Plugins folder. So I moved those subdirectories into just the EN folder, and that doesn’t work. This exporter combines four texture tools in a single plugin and standalone application, including flexible and powerful support for cube maps, mipmaps, normal maps, transparency, and more than 130 import formats. If I do that, it makes the Plug-Ins folder inside there, and that doesn’t work. The NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter allows users to create highly compressed texture files - that stay small both on disk and in memory - directly from image sources using NVIDIA’s CUDA-accelerated Texture Tools 3.0 compressor technology. I’ve tried installing it into the Program (x86) files, in the Plugins/EN folder. I’ve downloaded and installed this version: Thank you in advance, best wishes and merry x-mas from Germany! I’d greatly appreciate your feedback on this.
Using Corel Paint Shop Pro X5 with Service Pack 1Īnother user on the Corel forums reported the same error using Windows 8 Professional.
My OS is Windows 7 Professional 64-Bit (with Service Pack 1) I know the tool is developed for Photoshop, however i’d be glad to know if this is a “temporary” issue with the current version not running with Paint Shop Pro, or if this “problem” will remain with future version as well. The previous version of the plugin (8.51) works without any problems. The error appears and nothing gets saved. Until this point the plugin creates the temporary file as before (or sets the overwritten file to 0 byte). However, when i hit save, i recieve 2 error windows, both stating that the plugin “causes an access violation”. I can open DDS files as normal in PSP, and when i try to save a DDS file i get the normal Plugin interface and can set all the options. I recently tried your latest version (8.52).
Paint Shop Pro was/is capable to use the “dds.8bi” plugin from previous versions of the tool. I’ve been using your NVIDIA Texture Tools for Photoshop for many years, the DDS-Plugin to be exact, in Corels Paint Shop Pro.
