Save As - Explicit


Recommended Posts

I don't remember doing any updates, I normally save my work as opaque, or Explicit if they have transparent layers. All of a sudden something changed when I use "Save as", I used to have only about 4 -5 choices, and I only used the top (2) in the drop-down window, opaque or Explicit.

But now those two choices are gone (not present), and I have (17) choices. They are BC1 - BC7, linear or non-linear. I'm editing graphics that are of dds file format. I bring graphics in as png files, and save as dds.

The DDS support was upgraded in Paint.NET 4.2.2.

 

The "Opaque" format is linear BC1 (DXT1), the "Explicit" format is linear BC2 (DXT3).

The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait
