are there any viewers or plugins for 3dsMax (except the command line viewer inside the DirectXTex sources) that are capable of handling the DDS DXGI format?
3DS-Max 2014 and 2015 can't load those dds files (wrong header) and maya simply freezes when using a material with one of those dds files.
this format is available since 2010 and i cant find anything about plugins or viewers.

Anyhow I doubt there's a plugin for this. New DX formats keep being added each year it seems. Good luck though.
Most of viewers and plugins can read the dds when it contains the new extended directx 10 header.
