Installation

pip install tex2img

or download/clone the git and use

python setup.py install

Notes

• etcpack causes a segfault on linux systems, so linux systems will use basisu under the hood for etc instead

Functions

All functions accept only args and aren't able to handle kwards atm.

basisu_decompress

Decompresses data to RGBA via basisu's unpack_block function.

Args: (compressed data: bytes, width: int, height: int, format: int)

Returns: bytes

Formats:

decompress_astc

Decompresses raw astc-compressed data to RGBA.

Args: (compressed data: bytes, image width: int, image height: int, block_width: int, block_height: int, isSRGB: False)

Returns: bytes

decompress_atc

Decompresses raw atc-compressed data to RGB(A).

Args: (compressed data: bytes, width: int, height: int, alpha: bool)

Returns: bytes

alpha = False for ATC_RGB alpha = True for ATC_RGBA

decompress_pvrtc

Decompresses raw pvrtc-compressed data to RGBA.

Args: (compressed data: bytes, width: int, height: int, do2bit_mode: 0)

Returns: bytes

decompress_etc

Decompresses raw etc-compressed data to RGB(A).

Args: (compressed data: bytes, width: int, height: int, format: int)

This function has a memory leak, so it might crash if you use it on too many images at once (~500+). The basisu_decompress function also supports the most common ETC formats, so it is a good alternative.

Formats:

crunch_get_texture_info

Retrieves texture information from the CRN file.

Args: (data: bytes)

Returns: dict

crunch_get_level_info

Retrieves mipmap level specific information from the CRN file.

Args: (data: bytes, mipmap_leve: int)

Returns: dict

crunch_unpack_level

Transcodes the specified mipmap level to a destination buffer.

Args: (data: bytes, mipmap_level: int)

Returns: bytes

Sources

ATC & ASTC

The complete BinomialLLC/basis_universal is used and supported. It's default for the ATC and ASTC decompression.

ETC

The whole source of Ericsson/ETCPACK is used for the ETC decompression.

PVRTC

PVRTDecompress.cpp and PVRTDecompress.h of powervr-graphics/Native_SDK are used for the PVRTC decompression.

crunch

A mixed version of BinomialLLC/crunch and Unity-Technologies/crunch is used.

The Unity fork doesn't yield correct results for the original modes, so the BiomialLLC version is used for all modes besides ETC, which was created byUnity.
