This will tell you what DDS is

If you need programs, then check the stickied thread titled 'Flight Sim design programs'

If you want to learn how to design models for Flight Simulator, GMax is a great, but complex tool for doing  so. What version of FS do you have?

and to save you time ,make sure if you are going to do something in dds its only for FSX only and you will only compress using the DDS compresor "Imagetool" located in FSX-SDK ,Other compresors Won't work at all  Wink
