Error: Total PNG area limit of 5 megapixels exceed by 4.8 megapixels!
Hello friends!

Today I was going to upload a new mod that I'm doing, however, when generating the compressed file, an error appeared: Error: "Total PNG area limit of 5 megapixels exceeds by 11.2 megapixels"

I eliminated several details that would be just visuals from my mod, and still persisted: "Total PNG area limit of 5 megapixels exceeds by 8.3 megapixels"

I decided to eliminate for testing the seats, the gear shift lever and the steering wheel and the error persisted!

Now I deleted some textures, and the error now says: "Total PNG area limit of 5 megapixels exceeds by 4.8 megapixels"

I don't know what else to do, can anyone help me? I am very grateful in advance!

It's all about the area of the textures.

For example a 1024x1024 texture is 1 megapixel. A 512x512 texture is only 0.25 megapixels.

You need to look at the png textures in your model, see which ones are large and think of a way to get the effect by using smaller textures.

Sometimes you can do a lot with repeating textures, so for example on those seats you should use a very tiny texture, on a small mapping, so the texture repeats.

Maybe you are using large textures that would look fine if reduced in size. Basically there is no need in a game quality mesh, to use more than 5 megapixels. These limits allow mods to download quickly and make it practical to be online with a lot of different cars.

Thank you so much Scawen!

It worked out! I reduced most textures from 1024x1024 to 512x512 and it worked! I had to remove some details from my project such as 3d engine, transmission, extinguisher and other irrelevant details, but the important thing is that everything worked out! Smile
