What do you use to edit the DDS textures once you have exported them? I see you have MS Paint open, which so far as I know, doesn't even have a DDS import/export plugin, so it can't be used [just by itself, anyway].

Honestly, it'd probably be easiest for us to diagnose your problem if you gave us step by step detailed instructions of how YOU try to export/import the texture. That way we can easily see where you made your mistake and tell you how to fix it.

if you look above the texture in hmt, it says which format, most people relized that the error messages are messed up
