DIS to DDS Conversion: FAQ
What are DIS files?
The DIS extension is associated with the DKB Ray-Tracer, a piece of software originally created by David Kirk Buck and Aaron A. Collins, which served as a predecessor for the POV Ray-Tracer. The latter software has the capacity to generate images from text-based scene descriptions and works on various platforms. Though fairly popular on PC/MS-DOS platforms at its release, the DIS format is now obsolete. It can, however, be viewed and converted to more accessible formats.
What are DDS files?
DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).
