when injecting, make sure its in the right setting. like if its DXT1 make sure its that. once you save it, that is.

i dont know where you got "basic dds file" from but there is no basic dds file
they are all different types of DXT but they always use the file extension dds

it is above the "save" button when you click on a bitmap
therefore warthog would be DXT1

if your injecting into shared.map...clear cache, i had the same problem...and even when i cleared out x,y,z drives it still didn't show up, but on my mod i had a clear cache
