VTF2TGA

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:VTFEdit should be used as it's far more flexible and user-friendly, unless you need to work with HDR textures or need to do conversion in shell scripts, in which case no_vtf should be used.

Bug: CS:GO 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.
