TGA Image Preview
View TGA image files directly in VS Code, Windsurf, and Devin Core — no external tools needed.
This extension registers a native custom editor for .tga files, so double-clicking any TGA opens a rendered image preview instead of raw binary data.
Features
- Native Custom Editor — opens automatically for all
.tga files
- True-Color & Grayscale — supports 8/16/24/32 bit depths
- Uncompressed & RLE — handles Type 2/3 (uncompressed) and Type 10/11 (RLE compressed)
- Zero dependencies — all decoding happens inside the webview
