Hi,
Now I’m trying to use block compressed texture in my renderer.
I met an issue when I try to use 320x320 BC1 image (generated using texconv.exe in DirectXTex).
It has 9-level mip map and the filesize is 68468 bytes because of
- DDS header (+ DX10 extra header): 148 [bytes]
- MIP0: 320x320 [px] => 80x80 [blocks] x 8 [bytes/block] = 51200 [bytes]
- MIP1: 160x160 [px] => 40x40 [blocks] x 8 [bytes/block] = 12800 [bytes]
… - MIP4: 20x20 [px] => 5x5 [blocks] x 8 [bytes/block] = 200 [bytes]
- MIP5: 10x10 [px] => 3x3 [blocks] x 8 [bytes/block] = 72 [bytes]
… - MIP8: 1x1 [px] => 1x1 [blocks] x 8 [bytes/block] = 8 [bytes]
I need to copy the data part of the file into an OptiX buffer using buffer->map(mipLevel, …) but I found an inconsistency between the file and OptiX buffer.
I mapped all the mip levels of the buffer at once and took address differences of each mip level to the its previous level.
The address differences are:
51200, 12800, …, 200, 32, 8, …
In my understanding the number of blocks is round up so that they can contain all the pixels of a mip level.
For MIP5, 10x10 [px], the number of blocks should be 3x3 because one block size is 4x4.
Why does the MIP5 of OptiX has only 2x2 [blocks] = 32 [bytes] in this case?
Thanks,
