VTF2TGA is a primitive command-line tool used to convert files from the VTF format to the TGA format. The tool can also decompile uncompressed HDR VTFs into PFM files, despite the name.

Note.pngNote:VTFEdit should be used as it's far more flexible and user-friendly, unless you need to work with PFM files or need to do conversion in shell scripts.
Icon-Bug.pngBug:Template:Game name will crash if an invalid input is used.  [todo tested in ?]

Usage

Syntax: vtf2tga -i <input vtf> -o <output tga> [-mip]

Options

-i <input vtf>
The input VTF. Doesn't need the filename extension.
-o <output tga>
Name of the output file. Doesn't need the filename extension; outputs .tga for standard textures and .pfm for HDR textures.
-mip
Optional, dumps all mipmaps from the input VTF.
