minus-squareCypher@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·4 days ago revealing a whopping 96% reduction in memory texture size with NTC compared to conventional texture compression techniques From the article.
minus-squareCouldntCareBear@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up6·3 days agoYou’re correct. I guess they’re comparing against compressed pngs. Judging from the image at least. But still, I think they’re cherry picking one of the worst formats to make the comparison look good. Not to say that means this is bad. Just the cost/benefit is not nearly as good as it appears. We need comparisons against ETC or DXT.
