FAQ
GG to DDS Conversion
What are GG files?
A GG file represents an image associated with Koala Paint or Koala Painter — a drawing program included on the Koala Pad. This device represented a low-cost tablet released in the 1980s by Koala Technologies, designed as a drawing pad for children. Koala Painter was also released for the Commodore 64 computer, and was fairly popular among home users during the 1980s. GG files are currently considered obsolete.
What are DDS files?
DDS (DirectDraw Surface) is an image file format that usually contains texture data, cubic environment maps or other type of data compressed using the S3TC (S3 Texture Compression) algorithm. The DDS format was first associated with Microsoft's DirectX 7.0 and later on with DirectDraw, a tool for accelerating the rendering of graphics in various applications. DDS is a container file and can be decompressed using a graphics processing unit (GPU).
