Note: v2.50 has just been merged into the repo, but the documentation work for this release is still ongoing. ---- Intro ----- Basis Universal™ v2.5 is an open source supercompressed LDR/HDR GPU compressed texture interchange system from Binomial LLC that supports two intermediate file formats: the .KTX2 open standard from the Khronos Group, and our own \".basis\" file format. These file formats support rapid transcoding to virtually any compressed GPU texture format released over the past quarter century. GPU Textures are Infrastructure Our overall goal is to simplify the encoding and efficient distribution of portable LDR and HDR GPU texture, image, and short animated texture video content in a way that is compatible with any GPU or rendering/graphics API. The system supports eight modes (or codecs). In the order they were implemented: 1. ETC1S : A supercompressed subset of ETC1 designed for very fast transcoding to other LDR texture formats, low/medium quality but high compression, slightly faster transcoding to other LDR texture formats vs. libjpeg. 2. UASTC LDR 4x4 (with or without RDO) : Custom ASTC 4x4-like format designed for very fast transcoding to other LDR texture formats, high quality 3. UASTC HDR 4x4 : Standard ASTC HDR 4x4 texture data, but constrained for very fast transcoding to BC6H 4. ASTC HDR 6x6 (with or without RDO) : Standard ASTC HDR 6x6 5.
