Abstract
Described is a system that processes texture assets for an application to be distributed across a range of devices while still leveraging device-specific hardware capabilities. In one embodiment, the system processes various criteria and determines specialized texture asset variants for a set of devices. These criteria may include various selected options including an interpretation selection for interpreting a source image for a texture, and device trait options such as device type, memory, and software support. In addition, the system may create mipmaps based on attributes of a set of target devices. Accordingly, a set of specialized texture assets may be created and distributed across a suite of devices.
