Hello all,  
  
  
  
I am engaged to port an existing windows application to Mac. Windows version use some old pvrtc library, it use pvrtc.dll version 1.153.  
  
The windows code use two functions from pvrtc.dll: pvrtc\_size and pvrtc\_compress.  
  
Is there a location archive where I can download corresponding dylib or framework for Mac ?  
  
  
  
Thank you & regards,  
  
Marius

Hi Marius,  
  
  
  
As discussed via email, this library was deprecated a few revisions ago, but the same functionality is available through PVRTexTool and PVRTexLib, I’m posting here so others can use this information if they have similar queries at a later date.  
  
  
  
Regards,
