We had a lot of trouble creating POT textures from the very start of the project in Unity. It’s difficult to control over the sprites and textures sizes from the very start. Its for the same reason we have created a unique tool which would make your NPOT (non power of 2) image to a POT (power of 2) image. POT textures are images which are of the size 2×2, 4×4, 16×16, 32×32, 64×64, 128×128, 256×256 etc. If you use image in your project which is the size of Power of two, Unity, Unreal or any other engine will compress the image and store less size image in the Memory. Also its easier for the engines to process such images.
Many developers prefer using POT images for websites as well as they are of smaller foot print on the memory.
Check out our tool http://www.bluecreazione.com/imageprocessor which can bulk convert your current images to a POT images. Our application uses closest technique to scale and adjust your image to make it POT. You can use the application for free.
