Cannot view after extracting a DDS with Transparency about pypoe HOT 11 CLOSED

Try something like IrfanView and let me know if it works.

from pypoe.

Just tried IrfanView and it didn't seem to work. IrfanView wasn't even able to open the other DDS files that I was able to open before.

from pypoe.

Nevermind, it worked but when I exported as PNG, it doesn't preserve the transparency.

EDIT:
Did some digging, I don't think it is the transparency that messes the files up, I think it might be something else. I was able to extract and view ShapersFlask.dds (and other files alike) with normal DDS viewing softwares, but when it comes to the files I have described the very top of the issue and div cards (2DItems_Divination_Images_1.dds), they seem to not work.

from pypoe.

Do you have brotli installed and "Uncompress DDS files after exporting them from the GGPK" checked?

from pypoe.

Yep, otherwise I wouldn't be able to view and extract AtlasBlank.dds etc. in the first place. Are you having the same issue or am I the only one?

from pypoe.

The only time I can replicate "not being able to view" files is by unchecking brotli. The uncompressed, extracted 2DItems_Divination_Images_1.dds should show as "556 KB (569.872 Bytes)", can you confirm that?

from pypoe.

569,872 Bytes. Yep. I can view these files in IrfanView but it has a transparency issue when I try to export it as another format.
EDIT:
Are there other tools I could use?

from pypoe.

I think this is just an issue with converting using other tools then not necessarily within PyPoE. It looks like it renders right so long a black background is used.

from pypoe.

Why does a problem like this exist? I use Paint.Net and PhotoShop for example, they are able to open files such as AtlasBlank.dds AtlasCompletelyBlank.dds just fine but when it comes to these 2DItems_Divination_Images_1.dds 2DArt_UIImages_Login_4K_2.dds files, they refuse to open. What is causing this issue, is it a bug?

from pypoe.

I try to use Brotli.NET to decode the same, black background.
DXT3 is ok ,DXT4 no(black background).

Edit: black background is fine,the software does not support the preview of the format.(IrfanView and Ps)

VS2017 can also read a dds file...
