Okay I figured out that I have to export the file into a folder. Where should I export it into? The MUASkinner folder?

If your talkin about the dds plugin, you copy and paste the file here: C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins

Oh no, the .dds image I just made, it says that I cannot 'save as', it tells me to export the file, and when I export them, I choose a file to put it in, and it says dds, and then the pop up comes and I click the load mipmaps. I just don't know where to extract it to.

Oh, one thing I noticed, in the step where you convert the RGB image back to Indexed, you have to make sure the palette is 255. If it isn't the skin doesn't work.

Really? Lol, I have never done that before, maybe it's just set up that way for me already.

I will be very silly, but I can not do step 9 and the following
The Gimp does not open, you have to do something with the plugins?

Sorry if not understood, but I wrote it with google translator

Hi, please someone could upload the gimp plugin in another link? I'm having problems with the one Midnightphoenix posted.


I updated the DDS plugin to the actual download page now, so it should work for you all now! If it doesn't let me know :)
