Conversion is free, and several images can be processed together when you are assembling a texture collection.

2Convert the images to DDS

Leave DDS selected, then click “Start Conversion”.

3Save your texture files

Download individual DDS results or collect the whole batch in a ZIP.

An AVIF image can supply artwork for a texture, while the destination project determines what kind of DDS resource it needs.

Web artwork for a texture project

An AVIF reference or piece of artwork may need a DDS version before it can join an existing texture folder or mod package.

The texture requirement comes first

DDS requirements vary between projects. The file extension alone does not establish the required compression, mipmaps or alpha behavior.

Keep the AVIF as your source

The DDS is a delivery copy for a particular project. The AVIF remains useful for comparing the artwork or preparing another version later.
