File information
Last updated
Version 1.1
- • Added the option to specify an alternate viewer application in the Setup Window. (antistar)
• Greatly improved performance. Added a saved list of DDS files. The viewer will now save, and then recall the previously generated list of DDS images, which will now re-sync every time the application loads.
• Several internal tweaks and fixes.
Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer
- By Sir Garnon
Description:
The Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer is a utility used for viewing and comparing the .dds texture files that are included in both Bethesda's default textures, the Hi-Res DLC, and also other Hi-Res mods.
Ever wonder how many texture files you've downloaded, and their actual resolution and quality when compared to the originals? The Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer is a utility used for viewing the .dds texture files that are included in both Bethesda's Hi-Res DLCs, and other Hi-Res mods such as the excellent FlaconOil's HD ReTexture Project in 4k 2k - Made from Scratch, and also High Resolution Texture Pack - Valius - 2k and 4k
If used only as a simple DDS viewer, this utility is probably not that interesting. However, one of my main goals (or at least ideas) was to get the details of the DDS image pixel dimensions and file sizes displayed in an orderable list, and to use this information for performance analysis. Example, which textures are the largest, which textures have been overridden from the Bethesda BA2 files, etc. This is the main feature that distinguishes this utility from other viewers.
- Displays a list of DDS files, their dimension and file size.
- Displays an Image Preview, and also the full-size image.
- The UP and DOWN arrow keys can be used to select the previous or next row in the result grid.
- The LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys can be used to change the selected resolution (if more than one is available).
Installation:
To install, simply extract the files in the download file and run the Setup.exe install file.
Uninstall:
Use the Windows Control Panel option "Uninstall a Program", then select "Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer" from the list.
Directions:
1) Run the Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer, and click the "Setup" button.
2) On the Setup Window, enter in the paths for the Default Data folder, and also the Extract Folder path.
3) Once the paths have been correctly entered, click "Save" and return to the main window.
4) Once you have completed your setup, click the "Extract" button. A popup confirmation will show, asking you to proceed or not. If everything looks good, click Ok. This will run the BA2 extract process, which will *several* DOS windows. Let all of these run and complete before doing anything else (this typically only needs to be done once).
5) Once the BA2s have been extracted, click the "Start" button, and the let the program run for several minutes, as indicated by the progress bar. This will take some time, but you can minimize it and let it run in the background.
6) Once the program has looked at all of the dds files, the table will be displayed. From there, you can sort the list, comparing the differences in files, or view a Preview of a selected image by clicking on the desired row.
7) To view the full-size version of the image, simply click the Preview Image.

NVIDIA Texture Tools for Photoshop
This installer contains two plugins and several helpful scripts for Adobe Photoshop:
Free (Open Source)
A tool for compressing textures and creating mip-map levels.

GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It works on many operating systems, in many languages.
GIMP DDS Plugin
Free (Open Source)
A plugin for GIMP that allows you to load and save images in DirectDraw Surface (DDS) format.
GIMP Normal Map Plugin
This is a plugin for GIMP version 2.0 and above. It allows you to convert images into RGB normal maps for use in per-pixel lighting applications. The goal is to completely clone NVIDIA's photoshop plugin, with a few new useful features.

A standalone application for creating normal maps from height maps or images, with a surprising amount of options, and a very precise texture baking process.
- CrazyBump is fantastic for recalculating normal maps. You can dramatically smooth out DXTC compression artifacts and tweak your normal maps with the "Find Low Frequency Image Detail" function. It of course doesn't prevent compression artifacts from being re-introduced later, but at least you can get a clean working copy of an existing normal map to work with if you don't have access to the original uncompressed images.
- Capable of analyzing an image for 3D shapes based on highlights and shadows in the image and incorporating them into the normal map (effect is only useful in certain cases, can be controlled by a slider).
- Ability to blend multiple normal maps together properly. Good for merging changes together such as an existing fabric with another using a canvas effect.
- Capable of also baking specular maps, parallax displacement maps, and can bake out highlights and shadows on diffuse maps.
- Costs money, making it somewhat prohibitive for the casual modder.
Free (Open Source)
Another standalone application for creating normal maps from height maps or images, relatively simple to use and quite powerful in the right hands.
- SSbump is unique because it provides a layer based system for blending several normal maps together. Want a normal map for cracked bricks? Just add a layer containing your brick height or normal map, and add another layer containing your crack height or normal map above the first. Then blend them together using the "Additive Blend" mode, and you have a normal map for cracked bricks.
- Also provides several methods for generating the normal maps that will be contained in your layers. Normal maps can be obtained from height maps, RGB images (automatically grayscaled), preexisting normal maps, images lit from four directions, and from other normal maps in your current project.

Fallout 4 DDS Image Viewer
- Added the navigation keys "left arrow" and "right arrow" to main result list. Once the list is completely displayed, you can use the up and down arrow keys to move to the next and previous rows, and now also change the resolution on the right side (Default, Hi-Res, Custom). (regm9)
- Several internal tweaks and fixes.

Fallout 4, especially with the Hi-Res DLC, has nearly 125 GB of texture files, so you will need at least that much free space to use this utility.
In addition, extracting the texture files will take several minutes depending on your hardware. However this should only need to be done once.

does this allow me to access the default textures for editing without having to extract the BSAs?

Unfortunately not. The Viewer is intended for comparing the default, Hi-Res DLC, and any misc. files in the Date\Textures folder.

This looks really useful. I don't suppose you know if there's any way to make it work with Mod Organizer? With MO my Data folder is pretty much empty / vanilla FO4.
