OverflowError: Python integer -255 out of bounds for uint8 error

Seems like the package numpy latest version 2.0.0 isn't compatible with the texture compression script. The error OverflowError: Python integer -255 out of bounds for uint8 only happens on this version.
The easiest way to fix it is using an older version of numpy pip install numpy==1.26.4

Thanks so much! I wasn't directly using numpy, I was using the zemberek-python library which is a library for language processing, I kept getting this error and couldn't figure out what it was until I found your comment, I assume they just used an older version of numpy and since I had a newer version, it wasn't compatible.
