Up with your visuals!

It's been discussed on the forum ( http://www.stonetrip.com/developer/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=25008 ), that the currently shipped PVRTexTool.exe creates ugly (compressed) textures. In that thread, a different PVRTexToolis linked, which creates nicer, but not 100% nice textures

If you now download the latest version from the official homepage ( http://www.imgtec.com/powervr/insider/powervr-pvrtextool.asp ) you get perfect looking compressed textures (especially compressed with alpha).

The downside is, it won't work on iOS (says something like "invalid pvr") ... but I think the difference is worth the effort of replacing the exe for each platform.

Just wanted to let you know

Thanks for the heads up, well worth switching exes when doing final release exports.
