The NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter allows users to create highly compressed texture files - that stay small both on disk and in memory - directly from image sources using NVIDIA's CUDA-accelerated Texture Tools 3.0 compressor technology.

This exporter combines four texture tools in a single plugin and standalone application, including flexible and powerful support for cube maps, mipmaps, normal maps, transparency, and more than 130 import formats. A new compression preview pane allows you to see how your image will be compressed in real-time, without having to write to disk.

These tools are ideal for artists and graphics engineers looking to save texture memory and reduce the size of their applications or fit more or higher-resolution textures into the same space. For instance, game developers can use this to reduce the size of the games they create - or realistic rendering and digital content creation developers can use this to fit higher-resolution textures in memory.

Reduce application sizes

Compress textures down to a third of their original size. Or use this to fit more detailed and varied textures into memory

High-quality image processing

Generate mipmaps using linear-space colors and premultiplied alpha, filter normal maps using slope mapping, and more

Modern compression algorithms

Now supports BC6 for HDR textures, BC7 for high-quality compression, and ASTC for scalable compression on Tegra GPUs

Affinity Photo Dds Plugin

Standalone Application

• Both the plugin and the standalone exporter now export using DX9-style DDS headers when they can (i.e. without the DX10 header extension). Added an option to always use the DX10 header extension, which is disabled by default. This should improve compatibility with older DDS readers. The corresponding command-line flag is --dx10.
• Added support for read settings in the plugin. These settings are automatically saved in the registry. If you've hidden the read settings window, you can re-enable it from the About box.
• Added support in the plugin for reading mipmaps of DDS files as layers.
• Added support in the plugin for reading alpha channels of DDS files as extra channels instead of transparency.
• Added support for reading three nonstandard BC6/BC7 FourCC codes (BC6H, BC7L, and BC70).
• Added the ability to read and save images flipped vertically. The corresponding command-line options are --read-flip-y and --save-flip-y.
• Switched to using FreeImage instead of OpenImageIO in the standalone exporter for import and export of non-DDS images.
• BC1a, BC2, and BC3's Fastest modes now use the GPU for compression.
• Fixed a bug where RGB values of fully transparent pixels (with alpha equal to 0) would be set to 0 as a result of internal premultiplication.
• Fixed a bug where the standalone exporter would read TIFF files without an ICC profile using linear-space instead of sRGB colors.

• Fixed an issue where the standalone exporter would read some file types with inconsistent premultiplied alpha.
• Fixed an issue where the standalone exporter would read PSD files without a specified color profile as if they contained linear colors instead of sRGB colors.

• Fixed an issue where the standalone exporter would interpret some file formats without ICC profiles or specified oiio:ColorSpace values with the incorrect color space.
• Updated credits.
• Fixed an inaccuracy in the tooltips for BC1-BC5, where it talks about how palette elements are distributed between endpoints.
