Textures are images used in-game, generally either displayed directly or applied to a model. In Burnout Paradise, their format differs heavily between platforms. Despite this, they generally use variations of the same codecs—DXT1, DXT5 and A8R8G8B8. Mipmaps are used systematically throughout the game as well.
