Compressonator is a set of tools for compressing textures and creating mip-map levels

Compressonator DXTn (S3TC)is developed for Microsoft Windows® platform.

You will need the following:

1. Visual Studio 2015 to build the applications and libs
2. Common folder (submodule), or you can obtain the folder content from the [GPU Open site (CxlCommon)] (https://github.com/GPUOpen-Tools/CxlCommon) . You will only need the contents of the following folder for compressonator build:

• Common/Lib/AMD/APPSDK/3-0/
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/boost/
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_filesystem-vc140-mt-s-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_filesystem-vc140-mt-sgd-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_filesystem-vc140-mt-gd-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_filesystem-vc140-mt-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_system-vc140-mt-s-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_system-vc140-mt-sgd-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_system-vc140-mt-gd-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/Boost/boost_1_59_0/lib/VC14/x86/libboost_system-vc140-mt-1_59.lib
• Common/Lib/Ext/OpenEXR/v1.4.0/
• Common/Lib/Ext/OpenCV/2.49/
• Common/Lib/Ext/Qt/5.5/
• Common/Lib/Ext/Qt/Global-QT.props

The directory of your workspace should be as follows

• Common
• Compressonator
• LICENSE
• README.md

\Compressonator\VS2015\CompressonatorLib.sln

This solution will create a build folder that contains DLL and Libs under \Compressonator\Build\VS2015(configuration)(platform)\

\Compressonator\Applications\CompressonatorCLI\VS2015\VS2015.sln

This solution will create a build folder that contains a CompressonatorCLI.exe and a new plugins folder under \Compressonator\Build\VS2015(configuration)(platform)\

The command line tool has dependencies on Qt (V5.4 and up)

• Qt5Core.dll
• icuin54.dll
• icuuc54.dll
• icudt54.dll
• Qt5Gui.dll
• libGLESv2.dll
• opencv_core249.dll
• opencv_imgproc249.dll
• opencv_highgui249.dll

The dlls above are copied from common to CompressonatorCLI.exe folder by building the "CopyScript" project in the VS2015.sln.

\Compressonator\Applications\CompressonatorGUI\VS2015\VS2015.sln

This solution will create a build folder that contains a Compressonator.exe and a plugins folder under \Compressonator\Build\VS2015(configuration)(platform)\

If building in Debug_MD configuration, please make sure the working directory is in \Compressonator\Build\VS2015\Debug_MD(platform)\

The GUI tool has dependencies on Qt(V5.4 and up) and CXL - These file are copied from common & CLX folders to the Compressonator.exe folder when the project solution builds "CopyScript" project.
