Hi, got a slight problem here. I can't seem to load dds file format for textures in blitz3d...

I'm using 3d studio max 8 and the b3d pipeline to export my model and texture. In the first place I used a png texture file and it worked fine. Then I switched to using the dds format (because of its smaller file size) of the same texture, and when I export the model and view it in blitz the texture isn't showing up.

I searched through the forums and it seems that blitz 3d can support dds files. But I can't seem to get the texture to show up. Anyone have the same problem?

Cheers
