Anyway, if it's dxt1 and it says it isnt, it may be because you need to save as something else, check just above the 'save texture' button in hmt, it it says A8 R8 G8 B8 save it as ARGB or something like that with Letters and numbers, there should be a save option in photoshop with the corresponding letters, save as that. If it says Dxt# save as whatever number it is.

my problem is getting the save button to work. i check off all the options in tutorial and the appropriate DXT listed on the bitmap in HMT and the save button still is unaccessable. it wont let me click save grrr

oh this happened to me one time
i assume you tryed to make a dds pic from scratch
try opening a dds pic...then making a new pic over it...it should let you save then
