Abstract
A method and a graphics processing apparatus for processing texture in a graphics pipeline determine a rendering level of a dynamic texture based on usage information of a target object and render the target object by texturing the target object with the dynamic texture rendered based on the rendering level. The graphics processing apparatus includes at least one cache memory, and at least one processor configured to: perform geometry processing of a dynamic texture to be mapped onto a target object, determine a rendering level of the dynamic texture based on usage information of the target object obtained by the geometry processing of the target object, render the dynamic texture based on the determined rendering level, and render the target object by texturing the target object with the rendered dynamic texture.
