Remove .duf from thumbnail images

Hi

Apologies if this is a stupid question.

I am creating a custom character and the only way I can make a custom .png attach to the associated .duf file is to include .duf in the image filename so it reads something like "charactername.duf.png". If I remove the .duf from the image name it won't link yet every other .png file I see in my runtime for other content has no .duf in the name (it will read "charactername.png").

So how do I make the link without the .duf?

    If you have 2 .pngs in the folder, DS will always display the .duf.png. If you only have a .png, that's the one that will display. So if there's a .duf.png, you need to delete it.

    I always make my own thumbnails with Iray/3DL logos, and delete the .duf.pngs. This has the added advantage that if the user resaves an item, DS creates a duf.png rather than writing over my thumbnail. The user can then delete the .duf.png.

    Never knew that. Thanks!
