UE Viewer PVRTC decoder issues; persistent across all titles
« on: March 17, 2023, 12:03 »

Hi, I hope this reaches the maintainers of UE Viewer

The PVRTC decoder used in UE Viewer does not produce accurate results for PF_DXT1 compressed textures, and an example of what is expected and what is retrieved should be linked in this post. The official PVRTC decoder (C++) available on github yields correct results, so perhaps an update to the libraries would resolve this issue.

Any chance you could share the raw asset, as a sample?

Edit: I'm not a/the maintainer, just simply interested.

...
For PVRTC textures, UModel is using external library:
