# pdn-ddsfiletype-plus

A [Paint.NET](http://www.getpaint.net) filetype plugin that adds support for some of the DDS formats introduced in DirectX 10 and later.

### This plugin is bundled with Paint.NET 4.2.2 and later.

If you need the features from a newer version you can still install the plugin into the FileTypes folder.   
The installed plugin will override the bundled version if it has higher version number.

The plugin supports loading and saving DDS files that contain single images and cube maps, texture arrays and volume maps are not supported.   
If the file contains mipmaps only the main image will be loaded, the plugin has the option to generate mipmaps when saving.

Cube maps are loaded and saved using a 'crossed image' layout, see [Creating and Editing Cube Maps](https://github.com/0xC0000054/pdn-ddsfiletype-plus/wiki/Cube-Maps) for more information.   
An overview of the save UI options is provided on [this](https://github.com/0xC0000054/pdn-ddsfiletype-plus/wiki/Save-UI) page.
