NVIDIA Texture Tools

The NVIDIA Texture Tools is a collection of image processing and texture manipulation tools, designed to be integrated in game tools and asset processing pipelines.

The primary features of the library are mipmap and normal map generation, format conversion, and DXT compression.

How to build (Windows)

Use the provided Visual Studio 2017 solution project/vc2017/thekla.sln.

How to build (Linux/OSX)

Use cmake and the provided configure script:

$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Using NVIDIA Texture Tools

To use the NVIDIA Texture Tools in your own applications you just have to include the following header file:

src/nvtt/nvtt.h

And include the nvtt library in your projects.

The following file contains a simple example that shows how to use the library:

src/nvtt/tools/compress.cpp

Detailed documentation of the API can be found at:

Dario Manesku's cube map filtering tool seems like a good alternative for the cube map filtering functions in NVTT.
CubeMapGen is another source of information for cubemap filtering algorithms, but is now unsupported as well.
Deano Calver supports three tiny libraries that provide support for DDS and KTX file formats, and pixel format conversion.
stb_image and stb_image_write are two handy single header libraries to read and write images in various formats.

The venerable ImageMagick still provides many valuable tools and utilities.

Commercial Libraries

Oodle Texture is a suite of commercial RDO texture codecs.
NVIDIA Texture Tools exporter is based on a private fork of this project and offers additional GPU accelerated codecs, but it's not open source.
