Photoshop DDS plugin

Didn't know where to put this.
I've finally found a tutorial to mod MK, the problem is that when i save in DDS the texture turns to shades of blue, does anyone know why ?

DDS is a stupid format. 3 textures from GTA IV are DDS format and they don't work. So I dunno.

When i was modding RAW (PC) i worked with DDS and never had any problems, but now i reinstalled the nvidia dds plugin and it's all blue and looking like a normal map texture.

 

[Meh.]

Most video game textures are compressed down into DXT1/DXT3 dds format, because they're exceptional in compression sizes for space at a cost of not losing much detail.

Blue usually indicates you've toggled the settings for Normal mapping, I would suggest hitting the reset button to clear any previous states.

Fixed, i forgot to uncheck the normalize box in the DDS options, thanks Bombardier
