tga
What is a .tga file?
image/x-tga
TGA (Truevision Targa) is a raster format supporting 8- to 32-bit pixels with optional run-length encoding and an alpha channel. Long used in video, gaming, and 3D texturing, it stores simple uncompressed or RLE-compressed image data. It remains common as a texture and intermediate format.
How to use a .tga file
Use an example TGA to test texture loaders in game and 3D pipelines, RLE decompression, and converters that read Targa alpha and orientation flags.

Every member of this group is identical pixels, so a decoder returning different dimensions or a different pixel count has lost something rather than simply produced a different file; the 24-bit PNG in this group is lossless and is the reference the lossy members are measured against Source plate a-av-f3.
