Hey guys,

I'm optimizing my game with the current gameguru capabilities, and just figured some of my map files have a huge size compared to other ones, that have almost the same number of entities:



Does anybody knows whats causing some of the map files to be huge compared to others, and how to reduce it?

Did you light map any of these maps, or use a bunch of 4k textures?

You can open the map file, run test game, start any mode lightmapping.
When it gets past loading the objects, hold down he escape key until it returns to the editor.
This will clear lightmapping. Save the map afterwards.

Also I would make a backup of them in case something goes wrong.

Thanks Myke just did it. Screen seems to be freeze but processor is still running, guess its working to turn back the lightmapping.

Gonna wait and see if it works.
