.tga.ckd to dds (Just Dance)

[Slappy]

Hello.

What about Rayman Legends (Definitive Edition) for Nintendo Switch .tga.ckd?

It looks like DDS format ("TEX" can be found in file) but the "DDS" is missing and the other known tools do not convert the file.

1024x1024 dxt3, data starts at 0x234
you can get the unswizzled image with Rawtex here:

tick the "Switch swizzle" option before viewing.

Thanks, works perfectly. Is there any tool to swizzle the textures back to Switch format?
Now I have .png file from Rawtex, I modify it with Gimp and save as DDS DXT3 and copy bytes in hex editor back into .tga.ckd but the texture is not good.

i suppose you could try the Switch-Toolbox here:

or maybe masagrator's method:

I have tga.ckd files from Yo-Kai Watch: Just Dance Special Version for the Wii U. These files likely share the same format with Just Dance Wii U (Japan) and Just Dance 2014. None of the .py scripts worked to decode this format. Can you write a script to do just that for these formats?

(Side note: Is there a way to re-encode these textures using a hex editor or special program?)

1. Open a file (example geragerapoori_coach_1.tga.ckd) in hex editor
2. Delete ALL words before Gfx2 and save it
3. Now you have a backup of this file and modded file
4. Name it to geragerapoori_coach_1.gtx (the type of file should change to gtx)
5. Download https://drive.google.com/file/d/12N72eS ... sp=sharing and unzip it
6. Put geragerapoori_coach_1.gtx in folder named convert
7. Run convertGTX.bat
8. Now go to OutDDS folder and enjoy your files.

but if the file dont have a "Gfx2"? like the file above
help me!
