What is a TGA file?
TGA (Truevision Graphics Adapter), commonly called Targa, is a raster image format originally developed by Truevision for its graphics hardware. It supports color depths up to 32-bit (including an alpha channel), optional lossless RLE compression, and has long been a standard format in the visual effects, game development, and 3D rendering industries for storing textures and rendered frames.
How to open a TGA file
TGA files can be opened with most professional image editors, including Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, and Affinity Photo, as well as game-development and 3D tools like Unity, Unreal Engine, and Blender. General-purpose image viewers on Windows and macOS may need an additional plugin for full support, since TGA is less common in everyday consumer use.
