Is there any DDS texture support in blitz?

No

:)

I wish! :o) What you could do, is break down your textures into little chunks, and load them into blitz, bit by bit, then copy rect them to the main texture.

What is DDS?

Microsoft's own texture format.

ie: mytex.dds

What is so good about it?

Check my post I posted TWO YEARS AGO (in the middle of the thread):

Basically you could use four times more textures using the same amount of VRAM. EVERY game uses .DDSes these days.
