This page describes the GPU commands used for textures.

Texture unit setup: Register 0x80

Register 0x80 is used to enable individual texture units.

Bit Description
0 Enable texture unit 0.
1 Enable texture unit 1.
2 Enable texture unit 2.

Configuration of texture unit 0

Register ID Description
0x0081 Border color (unverified)
0x0082 Bits 16-31 are the texture width. Bits 0-15 are the texture height. The maximum texture size in either direction is 1024.
0x0083 Texture parameters (filtering, wrapping), see below.
0x0084 LOD setup?
0x0085 Physical address of texture data (divided by 8).
0x0086 Physical address of texture data for cube mapping?
0x0087 Physical address of texture data for cube mapping?
0x0088 Physical address of texture data for cube mapping?
0x0089 Physical address of texture data for cube mapping?
0x008A Physical address of texture data for cube mapping?
0x008B Shadow related?
0x008E Texture format (see below)

Configuration of texture units 1 and 2

Texture units 1 and 2 use a configuration block similar to the one of texture unit 0. They are based at registers 0x0091 and 0x0099.

Index word Description
0-4 Same as for texture unit 0
5 Texture format (see below)

Configuration of texture unit 3

The configuration block for texture unit 3 seems to be vastly different from the other texture units. Instead, registers 0x00A8 through 0x00B7 are used to configure procedural texturing features.

Texture info parameter structure for commands 0x0091 and 0x0099

Index Word Description
4-0 Same as command 0x0081.
5 Color type

Texture parameters

Bit Description GL parameter name
0 Normally this is value 0.
1 0 = GL_NEAREST, 1 = GL_LINEAR. GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER
2 1 = GL_LINEAR, GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST, or GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR. Value zero otherwise. GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER
3 Unused? ?
5-4 2 = texture color type 0xC, 0 otherwise.(Enable/disable texture data compression?) 0 = unknown, 1 = unknown, 3 = same effect as value 2.
7-6 Unused
11-8 0 = GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE, 1=unknown, 2=GL_REPEAT, 3=unknown. GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S
15-12 Same values as GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S. GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T
24 1 = GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR, or GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR. Value zero otherwise. GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER
27-25 Unused?
30-28 When some flag=1: value1=GL_TEXTURE_2D, value0 when the input parameter is not GL_TEXTURE_2D. When some flag=0: 0=GL_TEXTURE_2D, 1-4=unknown. ?
31 Unused? ?
