What WebP to TGA conversion does

Convert a WebP image to TGA directly in your browser. TGA is a common format in game development, texture pipelines, and older graphics or 3D software that specifically expects a .tga file.

How to convert WebP to TGA

1. Choose a WebP file.
2. Choose whether to include the alpha channel (32-bit) or not (24-bit).
3. Select Convert & download.
4. Save the .tga file from your browser downloads.

Why use this conversion

Game engines and texture-authoring tools frequently use TGA as a working format, including for textures that need a real alpha channel.

Transparency and output quality

Choose 32-bit (the default) to keep a real alpha channel from the source, or 24-bit to composite transparent pixels onto a white background instead, the same convention used for JPG output. This tool writes an uncompressed true-color TGA (image type 2), so the file will usually be larger than the source.

Privacy and local processing

• Processing occurs locally in the browser.
• Files are not uploaded to Looty Tools for conversion.
• Converted files remain on your device.

Limits and known issues

• Input: WebP (.webp) only, up to 25.0 MB and 8,192 px per side.
• Support varies outside game engines and graphics/texture tools — many everyday OS photo viewers do not open TGA natively without an extension.
• Animated WebP: only the first frame is converted to TGA. Animation is not preserved, and exact frame selection depends on your browser's decoder.
• Metadata is not preserved in the downloaded file.

WebP to TGA FAQ

Why convert WebP to TGA?

Game engines and texture-authoring tools frequently use TGA as a working format, including for textures that need a real alpha channel.

Should I use 24-bit or 32-bit TGA?

32-bit (the default) keeps a real alpha channel from the source. 24-bit composites transparent pixels onto a white background instead, the same convention used for JPG output.

Is TGA output compressed?

No. This tool writes an uncompressed true-color TGA (image type 2).

What happens with an animated WebP file?

Only the first frame is converted. Animation is not preserved, and exact frame selection depends on your browser's decoder.

Are my files uploaded?

No. Conversion runs locally in your browser and does not upload your file to Looty Tools servers.

What is validated before conversion?

The file must actually be a WebP — the tool checks the RIFF/WEBP signature bytes, not just the filename or extension, before decoding.
