ntw have not work with dod for a year so this is my well come back sorry

It's under the Preferences menu option in Photoshop.

Ok Jed you said it's under the Preferences menu option in Photoshop, i did that but It still say I don't have the memory

Can you give a noob way step by step beacuse I thnik I did something wrong...

Thx Junior

Depends on how much physical memory your PC actually has. 512Mb at least for the biggest textures. Usually setting memory useage for photoshop to 80-90% works in most cases.

Ironically, where the setting is varies in each version of Photoshop, but for CS2 its:

Edit->Preferences->Memory and Image Cache

and then increase the ammout allocated.

Nem has said that memory with larger images is a problem and its down to the archaic memory handling in the Photoshop SDK so theres little he can do about it :(

If you STILL can't get it to work, use VTFEdit instead. You'll need to export TGAs from it to edit them, then import them back in to make VTFs. It uses the same code as the photoshop plug-in so the results are identical.

Thx Jed I found out what I did wrong...

now when you say it thos SDK fils there was here on the forum the links a down...

huh? I dont understand what you mean? :confused:

Sorry Jed it's was the source hlmv I was lookning for (and found it)
But I mean there was a tutorial here on the forum with how you can get dod: s models to show up in the hlmv but I can't finde it
do you have the link???
I did use the search but I only found the tutorial for Hammer...

Thx Junior

Errr odd. I deleted it because they fixed the small error that stopped DoD showing up in the SDK list so since the recent update it should work fine.

Have you checked your SDK is set to keep itself up-to-date?

Yea I did and I refresh the SDK content...

Ah ok, i think I found the problem. You need to run the beta sdk to get the files, not the stock one. Add "-beta sdk" to your steam start-up shortcut.

and how do I do that... iam lost what do you mean???

Sorry Jed alot of this stuff is new for me...

Thx Junior

Hey Jed got it to work now thx for all the help

Junior

No problem. The SDK went out of Beta this week so you should now find all the DoD:S files when it updates.

It did but still thx for help out...
