You can find it here for example: http://realtimecollisiondetection.net/blog/?p=28 Yeah it seems like it should to be plain vanilla DXT but it doesn't behave that way.

Re: game industry... questions
Good thread, lots of good reading in here. Moving into a smaller R&D firm or starting your own studio seem like common alternatives for seasoned gamedev artists.
