How DDS to SVG Conversion Works
For DDS images and game textures, the converter decodes the first texture level into RGBA pixels, then traces color regions and edges into SVG paths. The result is vectorized artwork, not a bitmap embedded inside an SVG file.
Supported DDS Formats
This version supports uncompressed 24-bit and 32-bit RGB/RGBA textures plus DXT1, DXT3, and DXT5 compression. Alpha transparency is preserved when the source format contains it.
Best DDS Files to Vectorize
Icons, logos, masks, pixel art, and simple game graphics usually produce the cleanest paths. Detailed photographic textures can create large SVG files and are better simplified with fewer colors.
Current Limitations
DX10-header files, BC6H, BC7, cubemap faces, and additional mip levels are not converted. SVG tracing is an approximation, so it does not preserve the original texture blocks or game-engine metadata.
