Default Program to generate mipmaps
Does anyone know of a free program that will generate mipmaps for me? I have no idea how to do it, so I want to just click for it to generate them.

I made a Lisa Frank shirt for girls in TS4, but it didn't save with mipmaps.

I already have paint.net, but I have no idea if it will do it or not.

Assuming you have a .dds plugin, you have an option to generate mipmaps when you save the image as a .dds in paint.net.

How do I know if I have a dds plugin? I didn't downloaded one separately. It would download right from paint.net's website, so I had to use Bitlord. It said it was paint.net final.

Do you have the option when you try to save the file? It should be in your drop-down menu of image format options when you select "save as."

Make sure the mipmaps options is checked off when you save as .dds, and you should be good to go.
