The texture is a good tutorial. But photshop doesn't support .dds files. But I tried to find a plug-ins, and found one. What ever, I want only to tell everyone that .dds files doesn't support on photoshop.
If you guys want the link, for the plug-ins, pm me! I am not sure, If I'm allowed to link links
