FtexTool

FtexTool is an open-source tool which converts Fox Engine textures (.ftex) to Direct-Draw Surface textures (.dds). FtexTool works by getting information about the image from the .ftex file, and the actual image data from the image’s sub-texture files (.ftexs). It then converts this data into a single .dds image with mipmaps. It reverses this process when converting a .dds image back into a .ftex file. It stores information about the image in an .ftex file, and its mipmap and image data in the .ftexs files.

Usage

FtexTool can convert an .ftex file into a .dds file by dragging the .ftex file onto the tool. (Note that the .ftex file must be in the same directory as all of its sub-textures for this process to work.) It can also convert all .ftex files in a directory into .dds images if the folder containing the .ftex files is dragged onto the tool.
