What is the maximum texture size available on the iPad?

Question

Anyone know the maximum texture size for the iPad? I\'m having trouble finding numbers for this.

Answer 1

Here is a more recent resource from Apple.

https://developer.apple.com/metal/limits/

It has a lot of information about graphical limitations. If you want to know the maximum texture size for iOS, find the entry for "Maximum 2D texture width and height".

It depends on what operating systems you are targeting. For example, if you want to support iOS 8 and higher you are restricted to the iOS 8 limit for 2D textures of 4096 x 4096 pixels even though later versions of iOS can support larger textures.
