Yes, for multi-textured ships, you need to create those files. You'll need at least a basic understanding of working with shaders, normal maps, and specular maps to use the multi-texture options offered by the game. If you need help creating images in DDS format and normal maps, good free tools include the Compressonator by ATI ( http://developer.amd.com/gpu/compresson ... fault.aspx ) and the normal map plugin for photoshop/paintshop ( http://developer.nvidia.com/object/phot ... ugins.html ).

As examples of how it's done, you might also download and examine custom textures available at this forum.
