Compression artifacts on 1.0 textures.

[Lilleman]

Hi everyone!

I'm not sure if this problem has already been adressed, or if it's the correct section to post this. I apologize if it's the case.

While highlighting the MK1-2 pod in a dark area, I noticed some artifacts on the texture. The kind you usually find on an image after an agressive compression.

After a short investigation, I noticed some on other parts too. In fact, most of them. It's not very noticeable on dark parts, but it looks weird on light ones.

I checked the texture quality in the game settings (everything is set to maximum quality), and re-downloaded the game once, to be sure.

Then, I replaced some faulty textures with their counterparts from 0.90, converted to DDS with DDS4KSP. It solved the issue. Unfortunately, new parts textures can't be replaced this way, so it's only a partial workaround.

My guess is the conversion to DDS textures has been a bit agressive. But then again, I need confirmation this problem is not only on my side.

The MK1-2 pod artifacts are quite noticeable, but I replaced the texture before taking a screenshot, so here's one with a stock fuel tank;

Thanks in advance for any answer on this, it's one of those "can't be unseen" problem.

Edit: Forgot to mention, both textures for this screenshot have the same resolution, and the file size is the same (1366KB).
