Remember that DDS is a distribution file format and often uses data-reduction to achieve small file sizes. I would recommend to use PNG format for texturing and editing in AC3D and only replace with DDS right before you export to X-Plane.
There's a tool to create x-plane optimized DDS files available here. |
Thank you, Peter, for your immediate reply. I'm working on Win10. In the meantime I have done some texturing trials with my "old" textures converted to *.png format and it seems that this works. The "*.dds" extensions of my original files do in fact use lower-case for that. Nevertheless I'll give it a try with replacing the textures just before exporting.
