Continue?" When I do continue the template opens and the weathering layer is blank. A bugger, as it's one of the most important layers. Does anyone know of a cure for this? I'd like to be able to get this one just right...

pixelbaron Junior Member Registered: 07/01/09 Posts: 97 Loc: Florida	Yeah, it states in the manual that the templates were created using CS3, so opening them in earlier versions of Photoshop isn't guaranteed. I am using CS2 and thankfully everything opened without a hitch.

2GvSAP_Mohawk Member Registered: 03/16/02 Posts: 1257 Loc: NuJerzee, USA	I started work on a ROF template that Jason had posted using Photoshop 6.01. Before saving it as DDS, do I have to merge the layers? Whenever I try to save the psd file as dds, i get an error message "too many layers to export". I have done skins for IL2 where one has to merge the layers, but never used the DDS format. I have the DDS plugin for Photoshop installed.
