Zach1019 Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 HeyI have been having problems unlocking the dds files. I go to the desired dds file and change it to a v3o file and then go to then editor unpack it, then exit the editor. After I exit the editor I go back to the file and change it back to the dds file and then try to open it in Paint.net and when I try to open the file it gives me an error message. Can some one help with with this problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall8946 Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 Follow these steps to a T.Change the extension from .dds to .v3o(make sure its v3(Letter O and not zero)) Go into the editor and unpack it. Quit editor and rename the file back to its original name with the .dds extension. Now open it in paint.net and your all done!Dont repack the .dds file or your back to square one.What file are you trying to open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
