Froschkerl Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hi, I'm trying to generate LOD models for my world. The problem is, GECK tells me"xxx.tga" and "xxxLOD.tga" aren't the same size (but should be)I had to make every file a .tga manually, which is a giant pain in the a**So can I use FoMM to extract the textures as tga instead of dds?

madmongo Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 There's no way using FoMM to change the image format during the extraction. And yes it is a giant pain in the a**. I looked at this a while back and found a mention of someone using irfanview to bulk convert the files, but there were issues with the results (something related to the alpha channel, I think). I haven't personally tried it so I don't know if a newer version of irfanfiew still has the issue or not. If you decide to give it a shot let us know how well it works, or if you find something else that works let us know because I'd like a better way to do it also.

Froschkerl Posted February 2, 2018 Author Share Posted February 2, 2018 Nope, Irfanview doesnt help at all. It instantly shows me an error which says "Cant be opened" without further detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubiousintent Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 @pixelhate: If I understand the OP correctly, they want to do the reverse: DDS to TGA. There are possible complications. See the thread "Converting DDS textures to TGA" on the GameDev.StackExchange.com site. It contains links to several tools. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1205226User Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 That's what I understood. I haven't test the tool but it says "batch DDS to TGA converter'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dubiousintent Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 That's what I understood. I haven't test the tool but it says "batch DDS to TGA converter'...Arggh! :facepalm: I looked at that link three times, and still read it as reverse each time. Time to take a break. -Dubious- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
