About TXI files

The .txi format is primarily a Texture Information file used by BioWare game engines, including the Aurora and Odyssey engines powering titles like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Neverwinter Nights. It is a plain text metadata file that sits alongside actual image files (like TGA or TPC) to define rendering parameters such as bump mapping, blending, and animation frames. Other specialized uses include raw data exports from Berthold Technologies MikroWin software and data dictionaries for GeneXus. Users often need to convert or open .txi files when modding games or extracting scientific data. A major disadvantage of the .txi format is its lack of standardization. Many users mistakenly assume .txi files are standalone images and attempt to convert them to PNG or JPG. This fails because .txi files only contain text-based instructions, not graphical pixel data. The best conversion targets for BioWare .txi files are TXT for simple text editing, while scientific .txi exports should be converted to CSV for spreadsheet analysis. Because these files are highly specific to their original ecosystems, standard online converters usually crash when processing them. Often, only the original game engine or modding software can properly execute the data.

Convert.Guru analyzes your TXI file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted XTD, FTEX and TM2 files.
