rom-properties 1.3

New features:

  • Internationalization. The GNU gettext library is used to provide
    translation support for most of the UI. This version includes a
    complete pt_BR translation from Null Magic, and partial ru and
    uk translations from Egor.
  • MMX/SSE2/SSSE3-optimized byteswapping functions.

New texture formats:

  • Khronos KTX
  • Valve VTF
  • Valve VTF3

New systems:

  • ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) [includes Wii U RPX/RPL]
  • game.com (Tiger Electronics)

New compressed texture formats:

  • Ericsson ETC1 and ETC2
  • Variations of S3TC compression, including RGTC and LATC.
  • DXT1 with and without 1-bit alpha. Only VTF supports selecting this;
    for other texture formats, DXT1_A1 is used.
