Photoshop 64bit nvidia plugin?

malcolm

Anyone figured out how to make this work?

Nope, Nvidia are not supporting that plugin anymore... Use Xnormals plugin or Crazybump.

the nvidia photoshop 16-bit plugin works really well.
Make sure you change the image mode to 16-bit before running it

mLink, does it work with photoshop 64bit?

malcolm

Sorry I think I didn't make this clear but I want to save a .dds texture out of photoshop 64bit which does not appear to be supported by anyone's plugin.

You could either use the 32 Bit Version or try a Programm like Compressionator from ATI, but there is no way to get the Nvidia dds plugin working for photoshop 64 bit unfortunately

Yeah going with the 32bit version, too bad we are just upgrading the whole team to 64bit everything windows 7.

In response to the issue of 64-bit incompatibility, I wrote a simple javascript-based tool (really just a front end for Nvidia's Texture Tools 2 command-line functionality) for exporting DDS files from 64-bit versions of Photoshop. Although the tool works with 32-bit and 64-bit flavors of Photoshop, it's not as feature rich as Nvidia's plugin. As such, Nvidia's plugin probably makes more sense for 32-bit Photoshop installs. Please check out the tool, and let me know what you think. : )
