RE: AtDD Rapture Community Models - Rapture - 01-10-2012
How could you open up a .dae back into Blender? I accidently saved a tree model over a old one, and I'm going back and reducing the file sizes of the .dds
I had released my Dead Tree 1 before I accidently saved it over. So thats why I need to re-open it or that work will be lost. :[

If you can export DAE files it stands to reason you can import DAE files?

File > Import > COLLADA (.dae).
BTW, you should consider using the Sapling Blender plug-in for creating eerie and spooky trees. It's what i've been using for my full conversion.

Thanks, I forgot about that import option. >:
One more question, when I save the .dds, theirs a compression option. If I don't do compression I can sometimes get a whopping 5-16mb .dds file.
I wasn't sure which one I could use, but I read from the Skyrim Modding community that they save their image formats at BC1 / DXT1 to get a low file size (Mine went down to a nice 400-950 kb). So I tried that to, but my models (Blender is fine) in the ModelView/Editor won't show their texture. Am I doing something wrong or which compression should I choose to get the lowest filesize possible, but still let the texture show up?
RE: AtDD Rapture Community Models - Your Computer - 01-10-2012
The game supports all available DDS compressions. Make sure the .dae points to the right DDS file and make sure there's a .mat file that references the DDS file with the same name as the DDS file.
