I'm trying to use this to create a png from a bntx using command line, but it seems to not care about my arguments at all.

Ex1: ultimate_tex.exe chara_0_koopa_00.bntx result.png
Ex:2 ultimate_tex.exe -- chara_0_koopa_00.bntx result.png
Ex:3 ultimate_tex.exe -p chara_0_koopa_00.bntx result.png

Neither of these work, and all of them just open the GUI. Do I have to build the ultimate_tex_cli from source?

P.S. Thank you for making this, it looks awesome.

The current bntx library has very limited support for bntx files. There are existing implementations in C# that can serve as a reference like Switch Toolbox.

• support additional image formats
• support mipmaps
• support array layers?
• #6
• improved testing for bntx reading/writing

0.2.0 will not export multiple files at
the same time.

I went back to 0.1.3 to export them no problem.

This can use a cross, horizontal, or vertical layout for the cube map faces in the image input. This avoids the need to use DDS files on platforms that don't have good DDS tooling like Linux or MacOS.

I tried to convert a .png image and the only result I get is "Converted 0 of 1 images". No matter the format I try to convert to, the same thing happens, except .png to .png.
I though that it was an error generated by the odd size of the image, but I changed the size to be square (500px by 500px) and the same thing occurs.
Could it be a weird property of the image?

it just stays white and i cannot use it. I installed all I need too. I have windows

3D textures can be created from horizontal or vertical depth slices in a single image. This is less critical since most users will want to use Smush-LUT anyway.

Hello. I've come across a new issue. If you convert a bntx or nutexb file to png or dds, the new image's right side seems dotted, striped or "incomplete", and has like parts of that side erased almost.

This only seems to happen when selecting PNG as the export option, or selecting DDS and then selecting Color sRGB for output format.
If you select Color (Linear), the artifacts are actually not there.
Selecting PNG will cause this issue no matter the case (options are disabled anyways.)

Here is the program version I use (and what I did):

And then, here is the outcome picture. Notice the right side of the image seems like it's striped. Hmm:

hey sorry if Im not supposed to start a new issue. I wasn't sure since you closed the last one but now the newest release it unfortunately still doesnt work but shows an error message this time.

Error converting chara_4_eflame_only_01.png: error compressing surface: surface dimensions 162 x 162 x 1 are not divisibly by the block dimensions 4 x 4

Is this something thats fixable?

I have tried to convert this bntx file into png through both the cli and gui version, but neither works.
The bntx file is attached (in a zip), and here is the cmd log after executing the cli.

chara_2_koopajr_02.zip

everytime I try and no matter what I do, for some reason just 162x162 images dont convert back into .bntx

Not an issue, more an enhancement idea. Being able to set compression levels for all images at once would be really nice. It is a bit tedious to have to set them all one by one, which is honestly a bit surprising that it's not already in given how there's options to set everything as PNGs, BNTXs, etc.

Would love to see this change be in the program!

This is caused by a linker error with ld with the intel_tex_2 crate.

/deps/libintel_tex_2-0274f53995cad98c.rlib(ispc_texcomp_astc.o): undefined reference to symbol '_ZSt20__throw_length_errorPKc@@GLIBCXX_3.4'
          /usr/bin/ld: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
          collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

This is causing issues with exporting compressed formats like bntx and nutexb. This is also causing #13.

Ult Tex can make and export BNTX files from and into PNG/DDS files fine, but whenever it is loaded into Smash, it crashes.
I don't think I know exactly what's wrong, surface-wise, but hopefully it won't be too difficult to remedy.

Nutexb files are completely fine of course, to and from PNG/DDS files, if it's worth knowing for the other filetype.
Only BNTX conversion seems strange.

If your "improve BNTX support" issue/tab already includes this as one of the known issues and will fix it when finished, I apologize for making a new unneeded issue tab, lol..

I recently downloaded Ultimate_tex but i’m having an issue where the screen will zoom in where yiu can barely see anything

Every time I import my batch of BNTX files, and set the output folder, everything works perfectly. But as soon as I click export, the program crashes with no explanation or error. I have the Microsoft thing already so I really can’t tell what’s wrong. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

This is tested on a virtual machine but will likely occur on actual hardware as well. It might work better to also provide an AppImage with all the necessary dependencies.
