'''''God of War III''''' is a third-person action-adventure game loosely based on Greek mythology. It was developed by ''SCE Santa Monica Studio'' for [[PlayStation 3]] and released in 2010.

==File Formats==
* .'''WAD''' - Model/Animation/Texture container
* .'''TS''' - Merged textures
* .'''[[DDS]]''' - Textures

===WAD===
In ''God of War III'' '''.WAD''' files contain model, animation, texture and presumably sound data.

Some textures are fully stored in the WAD files, but in most cases the main texture is in .TS file while the [[DDS]] header and mip-maps are stored in the WAD. The offset to the texture in TS file is 16 bytes before the start of DDS header (DDS header starts with 0x44445320 "DDS ").

Models are usually diveded in several pieces. Every piece has an array of vertex coordinates and an array of UV coordinates. Vertexes are connected using triangle strip algorythms.

===TS===
TS file consists of a number of headerless [[DDS]] textures merged together. It is impossible to determine where one texture ends and another begins without the WAD file, where the offsets are stored. The only other way is to manually do that using tools like Texture Finder, but it is time consuming and inefficient.
