In my case I was using Vulkan so it was literally just >>106869023. Didn't handle compression though because I don't think I'll need it, but it shouldn't be too bad just import Zstd etc and do that.
>>
>>106872458
>zstd
that's a different kind of compression than I was talking about. With zstd you'd have a compressed texture, but to use it on the gpu you'd still have to decompress it and upload the full texture to the gpu.
Texture compression methods like bptc or astc are about that. They store an image on the gpu using other compression methods (block compression) that then allows the gpu to sample from that compressed image directly with essentially the same speed as an uncompressed image. That way you use less gpu memory.
zstd compression might still be useful for you to make the asset files smaller but it's a different goal.

My bad, speedread your post a bit too much.

In the case of Vulkan, KTX2 is very straightforward with BC7 (which I'm using), just load the miplevels into a buffer and dump them into a VkImage so I didn't have to worry about compression. Because of that the only compression on my mind was whatever supercompression scheme used. It's entirely unnecessary for my game though since I'm not aiming to have a meaningful number of textures above 1k.

Almost everyove knows that JPEG files can be encoded to enable several progressive steps of rendering, so that the incomplete file on its early stages of downloading is seen as blurry.

When the information of luminosity comes before the colors, such early image can also be decoded as gray or greenish (see the attached PNG; see also https://cloudinary.com/blog/progressive_jpegs_and_green_martians for the explanation). Modern versions of web browsers actually avoid this weird colours by suppressing decoding until both colour components arrive from the Web.

When a JPEG is not progressive, it is designed to render from top to bottom.

All that makes me think once again about the AVIF files.

There are experiments of making them progressive (you can run “avifenc” with “--progressive”), but by default an AVIF is so much non-progressive that it does not render (even from top to bottom) until fully downloaded.

But what if an incomplete AVIF were, in fact, rendered? What would we see then?

Would the pixels come in the same “from top to bottom” order, but in blocks of different sizes?

Would the pixels come in weird colours because the chroma comes after the luma?

Interpolating frames would be million times heavier and would require external application. Encoded stream is compressed and why it's efficient - it's the same as an archive. If you mess up something in between it'll corrupt.
