Below is a recursive function (an extension of Dwight's post) that
traverses the scene graph below a node specified by the argument, and
replaces all Textures specified to the 32bit (RGBA_8) format. Note
this problem also occurs with the obj and pfb loaders.

Also note that many times in my apps, multiple GeoSets share the same
texture. This function will just set the same Texture multiple times.
Since I only do this once during initialization, I don't care about
efficiency.

void upgradeTextures(pfNode *node)
{
   if (node->isOfType(pfGroup::getClassType()))
   {
      for (int i=0; i<((pfGroup *) node)->getNumChildren(); i++)
      {
         upgradeTextures(((pfGroup *) node)->getChild(i));
      }
   }
   else if (node->isOfType(pfGeode::getClassType()))
   {
      // okay...I have found a Geode now access the Texture, if present

      pfGeode *gnode = (pfGeode *)node;
      pfGeoSet *gset = gnode->getGSet(0);

      if (gset)
      {
         pfGeoState* gstate = gset->getGState();

         if (gstate)
         {
            pfTexture *tex =
               (pfTexture *) gstate->getAttr(PFSTATE_TEXTURE);

            if (tex)
            {
               // You probably should access the existing format and make a
               // decision about what to change it to here. This is how you
               // access the existing format:
               // int old_format = tex->getFormat(PFTEX_INTERNAL_FORMAT);

               tex->setFormat(PFTEX_INTERNAL_FORMAT, PFTEX_RGBA_8);
            }
         }
      }
   }
}
