Convert Game assets and scripts (PIG) online for free
The converter easily converts your PIG Assets and scripts to various formats - free and online. No Apache Pig or or other Game software needed.
To convert other file formats to the "Asset Archive & Script File" file type, you need software like Apache Pig or a similar tool.
A .PIG file typically serves as either a proprietary data archive for video games or a text-based script for large-scale data analysis. In the gaming industry, titles like the Asphalt series, Descent, and Pirates of the Burning Sea use this format to pack 3D models, textures, and audio into a single, highly compressed package. In the big data sector, it functions as a Pig Latin script used by Apache Pig to execute data flow processes on Hadoop clusters. Very rarely, it acts as a Prezi Next presentation package or an audio plugin file.
The main disadvantage of the .PIG format is its heavily proprietary nature. Game asset .PIG files use custom encryption or non-standard compression algorithms. This means standard archive tools like WinRAR or 7-Zip usually fail to open them, locking users out of viewing or extracting the contained media without niche community-made modding utilities. Apache Pig scripts, while technically plain text, lack any execution context outside of a specialized Hadoop environment, making them difficult for non-developers to parse.
To overcome these limitations, conversion or extraction is necessary. For game assets, converting or extracting a .PIG file to ZIP allows you to safely access the underlying PNG textures, WAV sound files, or OBJ 3D models. For data scripts, converting to TXT or CSV ensures the logic is universally readable across all text editors. Just drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our PIG converter.
