Developed foundational support for the BC1 texture format in the electronicarts/gigi repository, focusing on cross-backend compatibility to enhance asset pipeline flexibility. Leveraged C++ and graphics programming expertise to map BC1_Unorm formats to both DXGI and WebGPU, ensuring consistent handling across rendering platforms. Updated utility functions to recognize and process BC1 textures, and improved error logging for texture conversion failures to streamline diagnostics and reduce debugging time. This work established a scalable framework for future texture format expansion, addressing the need for robust texture compression and cross-platform rendering using DirectX 12 and WebGPU technologies within a modern graphics pipeline.
