CLUSTER CONVERTS-FILES-GAME · 7 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2024-01-11
Game texture conversion tools
This cluster contains tools for viewing, converting, and editing game texture files, aimed at modders and artists. They cover formats such as BLP/DDS, Dreamcast ROM textures, and Valve's VTF format. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from: only one pre-index entry is dated, and two members have no source date. On traction, DVPL-Mod-Helper leads with 7 stars, followed by blp-studio at 2 stars and WearCraft at 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 7 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
