If you're using Photoshop to view edit DDS files, you can set up a batch using photoshop and adobe bridge.
How to Set up a Batch Conversion
Photoshop
- Open up a DDS file in photoshop
- Open up the Action Panel ( Window > Actions ; or Alt+F9 )
- Create a New folder in Actions, Name it "DDS to PNG"
- Hit the "Create a new Action" button ( looks like a square with a folded corner ) then name it "dds to png action"
- You should now see the recording button on in the Action Panel
- Goto File > Save As ; Choose PNG and the location you want all the PNGs to be saved to.
- Goto File > Close (This makes sure all the images are closed after being converted)
- In the Action Panel, hit Stop Recording ( Square Button )
Bridge
- Open Bridge and Select all DDS files you want to convert
- Goto Tools > Photoshop > Batch
- A dialog will pop-up:
-Under "Play"
- Change Set to "DDS to PNG"
- Change Action to "dds to png action"
-Hit OK
Photoshop should now start opening the DDS, saving as PNGs and closing.
You can choose a new destination point in the bridge dialog if you forgot to set up one or want a new folder
