By Murano on Jun 16, 2009 • TSR Workshop Pattern Tool Video Tutorial
This video tutorial shows you the workflow between Illustrator, Photoshop and the TSR Workshop Pattern Tool. It might also help you to understand the creating of RGBA masks even more.
Subtitles
The video tutorial comes along with English and German subtitles. It also allows you to translate one of these into your own language using the Translation feature.
Software used
- Illustrator CS3
- Photoshop CS3
- TSR Workshop
Installing DDS Plugin
You have to download the Photoshop DDS plug-ins here: http://developer.nvidia.com/object/photoshop_dds_plugins.html
Click on Download Current Version to download the file and then install it.
If your Photoshop is in English the installer might have chosen the right destination in the Photoshop directory for the plug-ins. If it’s not then you have to translate the folders name to know where to move the plug-ins to. The correct folder should be C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CSX\plug-ins\file format

In addition to the Red and Green channel, you'd use the Blue channel for the third color and the Alpha channel for the fourth color.
