The "wrong" LODs only leads in black textures when zooming, that's it. https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/667342976/1639789306562159404/

I tried searching bash in the rico and find it menu but I still cant find it

I call Buhl.

Should be called Bash building.

How do I find the 2x4 building? I can only seem to find the 1x4 one and would love t use the larger one.

works fine on my computer. didnt realize there was a second asset until I started this pittsburg build lol.

I hear you, Darf, but it has caused some user(s) to complain that this asset is not working in a District Style to which it is assigned. I am not sure why, but this lod texture discrepancy might be enough to cause certain rigs to skip the asset and show it as missing.

Lod textures are combined in a texture atlas before the start of the game, so they are not dynamically upscaled like you say. They only get upscaled downscaled at import for regular textures and at the start of the game. The texture atlas stays in video RAM at all moments and is defined by a set size. So still BS. While C:S might not be a game that's played on a high performance rig, most people that mod the game do. And even then, most low level videocards should not have any impact on performance, because the game isn't peformance capped on gpu, but rather on the cpu due the way the simulation and interface is programmed. Most standard assets also are made a lot worse performance wise than mine, due to the budget limitations CO had at the time.

Anyways, not worth 2-3h of my time.

Read up on NPOT vs POT , ram usage, edging artefacts and the likes. Older openGL cards have drops of up to 30% in performance when up/downscaling using NPOT and even while newer cards are powerful enough so you don't instantly notice these things, it is not optimal. When an asset gets spawned multiple times in a cell (like CS does it so gallantly) and you multiply this by a large number of assets with NOPT textures that is when things become interesting. So less "bs " than you may think. Also these kind of games are not run on high performance rigs many of times (I have a pretty powerful one but still...), so a little effort on the creator's end would help those peeps.

lol, thats a lot of bs

"ignoring" many of those errors (as you suggested) leads to your system (gpu) permanently doing calculations . It is an easy "fix" for the author but not the ideal solution.

great, thank you so much

That's great to know Darf. Thank you for the info.

You can ignore it, games just upscales texture to 512x128.

love the building, but according to the Loading Screen Mod, there's an issue with the LOD...
Invalid LOD texture size 384 x 128

great

Это просто великолепная модель!!!

wowow

Downloaded

Great!
Thank you for this creation.

I love the colored details!

beautiful, i know this building, pittsburgh is a beautiful city too

Must have!

Absolutely beautiful, thank you!

More quality work, thank you.

Always a good day to see one of your new projects on here. Thanks!

great like always. thanks a lot. :)
