I'm excited to announce that Spark 1.2 is finally out!
This release brings major optimizations, new formats, and expanded platform support, solidifying Spark as the go-to solution for all your real-time GPU texture compression needs.
What’s new?
- Massive performance improvements thanks to extensive f16 vectorization.
- New codecs: HDR support through RGBM formats, ETC2, BC3-YCoCg, ASTC 6×6, and sideband codecs for transcoding.
- New platforms: Now supports Android TV and consoles.
