This project can be pulled as a Docker image, which is basically a template for a container. This project aims to change that, with the help of Docker.ĭocker is a very useful program that allows you to run all kinds of software in containers (containers are like virtual machines, except they don't emulate the entire computer, so it's way faster). If your map uses textures from already existing assets like CSS then you shouldn't have to worry that much about it.Garry's Mod servers are typically a pain in the butt to set up correctly. Textures are more often than not going to account for most of the file-size so if you ever run into problems with that then try to optimize your textures first, if possible.

And those that aren't are going to make your addon increasingly big if you have a lot of textures included in it that use them. Some are compressed like DXT1 and DXT5, but others aren't. vtf-files, if you've been using VTFEdit specifically, can be associated with a lot of different formats. vtf-files that you are wanting to upload with your addon. I am referring to any (but not limited to). I'm pretty new to mapping and stuff, so far I've only use the already existing textures from the hammer. You are more likely to get halted by the compression method failing because the file is too big than the workshop telling you the same thing, so it might be hard to set a concrete limit.įurthermore, if you are ever to breach that limit then you are most likely using an overcompensating texture-format for a lot of textures. Originally posted by Mailer:The reoccuring limit mentioned at facepunch is compressing down to 200MB.
