Since 3ds max 8 can be a bit of a hassle with the dds image format as materials it sometimes errors on creating the device when trying to load in dds files.
I've found 2 possible fixes for it for both 32 bit and 64 bit windows.
32 bit windows:
It usually is enough to copy from the folder "3dsMax8\stdplugs\dxplugins" the files:
dds.bmi
dxDDS.bmi
to the folder "3dsMax8\stdplugs", so you basically copy and paste the files out of the dxplugins to the map before it!
64 bit windows:
Download the attachment and paste it into the folder "3dsMax8\plugins"
View attachment dds plugin fix.rar
this is a fixed dds.bmi plugin file specially made for 64 bit windows vista and 7
