Thinking how to bring better look for models in the game i came to a though of having one\two common texture sets on a single file.
I'm aware that banished is often played on low end machines, so i don't want to bring excessive stress with excessive texturing and model complexity.
How much of a difference would it make if instead of 5-7 different textures, there would be one high resolution texture that includes all tiles models need to use?
till you respect a 1024x1024 images.... more than that it is going to be a burden.
the thing with 5-6 mini png.... they can be reuse everywhere without extra load.
like example, i have a 32x256 png for 1 plank of wood. i maybe have 2,000,000 planks that has been put everywhere in all my meshes....
so instead to have 2.000.000 pngs... i only have 1 png.
dont go for 4096x4096 lol
I was considering 2048x2048 at most.
