Something I think we need to address.

Post by Voutare »

So, as of right now, I can't play MXS very well at all because of one simple reason. You all use 2048 skins.



My computer doesn't run them, as well as DJ's old computer. So, I think only 2 things can happen.


You all can continue to use 2048 exclusive, and run a part of your fanbase into the ground, or you can start uploading two different versions. There are only a few people doing that, so there are still 2048 only skins out there, that my computer would have to load.

Or, you can all donate some money to me so I can buy a new computer.

You can make a 2048 skin, but then just make a second copy and resize it to 1024.
Voutare can do it himself, too.

Why don't you just turn down 'model texture detail'?

It's from the Pine Creek race. I think it has a certain hypnotic quality to it. You are getting very sleepy. You will buy MX Simulator. Awake!

Wow, didn't notice that! That would have been effort to make!

Back on topic, does each step of model texture detail divide the dimensions by 2 or what?

That's it. 10 is no downsampling. 9 is half the resolution. 8 is 1/4 and so on.

Cool, so that means I only have to upload 2048 skins now. That'll make things easier
