WISD0MTREE Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Hey! Every time I save a file as a .TGA, it changes to a .PDN file. Am I doing something wrong?

Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 TGA files do not support layers. I suspect paint.net wants you to use PDN to preserve the layer structure of your image. Flatten your image then save it by selecting the TGA extension in the drop down list in the file save dialog. Do not simply type the extension in. Why TGA? 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used an online converter, so it is all good now. I need TGA because I am making a game mod. Thanks for helping!
