It's not quite the same as writing TGAs - VTFs are more like DDS files than
TGAs in how they store image data. You could look at VTFlib
(http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VTFLib) which should be able to
point you in the right direction for writing VTFs.

Subject: [hlcoders] Writing VTFs

Just wondering if anyone had done this yet before I started messing.
Is it available anywhere in the code? All I could find was writing TGAs.

At the moment I can write TGAs fine (following the save game icon example).

I'm kinda thinking that the actual data of TGAs and VTFs aren't going to be
that different, if the image format is the same.

There's some really useful information here

http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/VTF

Including the struct for the header.. So would saving a VTF just be the same
as a TGA but with a different header?
