Medalghosteditor does not work with large objects

[Flighthigh]

If a build a Track with more then 150kB for external objects the Ghost editor does not work. I got the Errormessage that the objects are not there.



But i build the Track and the Items are there. If i take one Object out from the Track so i come under 150 kB the Track works with the Medalghosteditor pretty well.

The limit was recently raised from 50k to 150k (see also changelog)
How come you're already breaking it
Are you sure you need that much?

If you can read French, there was a explanation from PapyChampy a few days ago here:

150 ko c'est la limite de data pour TOUS les embedded objects sur une map. (Sachant qu'un même objet n'entame ce capital de 150 ko qu'une seule fois.)

Le poids de chaque objet reste limité car il n'y a pas de textures custom sur ces objets.

J'ai pas encore pu faire les tests moi même sur les Embedded Items, mais à priori ça devrait tourner autour de 5/10 objets uniques en plus sur une map avant de dépasser les 150 Ko. Ca dépend également de la complexité de l'objet et de sa géométrie, un objet plus complexe en vertex pesant plus lourd.

I know that the limit is set on 150 kB

I dont have a problem with the limit. I have a Problem that a finished Track with more Objects runs in a Titlepack if i put the great Object into the Pack manuell. But i cant make the Medalghost for the Track.

Sorry but french is not my.

You need to be in in your title pack otherwise it doesn't work (even if you got objects in folders)

No problem

150kB is the data limit for ALL embedded objects on a map (knowing that the same object is counted only once in the 150kB data).
The weight of each object is still restricted because there are no custom textures on those objects.

I was not able to do tests myself with the embedded items, but it should be around 5/10 additional unique ojects more in a map before the 150kB barrier is exceeded. This also depends of the complexity of the object and of its geometry, since a object that is heavier in vertices weights more.

Thks TMarc but i think you dont understand what i mean.

Meuh know what i mean and thanks for the Link.

So i found a way where i can build Tracks with great Objekts for my Pack and drive Medalghosts too.

[TMarc]

but then you're not affected by the limit anymore, right?

[Flighthigh]

That right but if i put the Objekt into a Titlepack and build the Track then after a Update of the Pack there is no limit more. You can activated the experimental Item-Embbeded but you dont get a warning message. If the Track is ready i can drive the Medalghosts and put the Replay and the Track into the Pack. After a update of the Pack you can drive the Track with Medalghost in the Solocampaign.
For the future if i load this Track up to MX i give a message that the Track only runs in Offlinemode of the Titlepack. And the Track runs only on a Server if he start with the Pack.

Thats it

perfect explanation, thanks
