Suddenly fshx and CS3 dont like each other...

Currently I startet to work a bit with my live again...
Now if I want to open dds or bmp from fshx it doesnt work and vice versa. They just dont appear in the open/import screen of fhsx/cs3. Even if I type in the name it doesnt show anything. Windows still recognizers both and I can open the with IrfanView. I can only open them with drag&drop from the each open/import window.
Also I cant save dds with imported alphas. I reinstalled my dds plugin but it didnt change anything.

Thanks in advance

May i ask something? did you use vista or any other os? cuz i also had that problem and what i did is find the fshx proggie for vista and installed it..

I still use XP..
I didnt reinstall or anything since my last working use

Ok here is what you gotta do try to reinstall adobe photoshop then apply the dds plugins and see if it now works

I went googling and CS3 and the DDS pl;ugin don't seem to always agree.

Reinstalled both but its still like that.

If both programs are having a similar problem of opening dds files, I think there is something else wrong. It sounds more like some kind of explorer problem, since dragging and dropping works. Try running FSHx in compatability mode or something.

As for the importing alpha problem, si it giving you the "too many channels" dialog box? The only way around that is to save the regular image as DXT3 and then reopen it in Photoshop, and paste your alpha into the newly created alpha.

I dont have too many channels, so I save in tga now. I dont think that its a explorer problem since they still can which their own files
