Data about the custom parts
lego_studio a commencé cette discussion dans General Discussion

I am having a lot of fun with my custom prints, but I soon realized it said "Insufficient storage space." What is that, and how to solve this?

You only have 5mb of storage. Make sure to optimize and keep you decorations small in size and there is enough space for many decorations. 😃

that means, I cannot do anything right now?

It shall already be sufficient to keep a few hundreds custom parts. Make sure that you optimise the file size. It shall generally be no more than 50kb.

What you can do is delete some of your textures if you're not using them, but make sure you optimize the textures to keep the file size small. A regular texture, for example a torso should not have be over 100KB and data textures can be saved as 8-bits to reduce about half the file size(see Scrubs first post in this thread, https://www.mecabricks.com/en/forum/topic/1582)
5MB storage should be enough for around at least 50 textures(calculated each texture is 100KB which is high)

Edit: Scrubs answered while I wrote my post! 😃

@Sealund I shall actually update the recommendation. Colour texture shall also be saved as 8-bit PNG. It works perfectly providing that the software doesn't mess with transparency. e.g. Photoshop does it perfectly but Affinity Designer doesn't.

OK, thank you, I actually want to make the super mario parts because I am doing the 71361-super mario character pack.
Hope macabricks can add them, so I can delete it to have more data

yea I'm trying to upload a park and I can't seem to get it under 100kb

Is there a way to pay to add more storage? I've been working on a bunch of custom Clone Trooper designs with the 2020 redesign to the armor, and I am running out of space

@Echolord_0408 Will be possible in the future. That is currently manual.

@Echolord_0408 Try running your decoration images through [url]https://tinypng.com[/url]. For what you're doing, you should be able to reduce your file size drastically. I did a test with your 2020 Style Clone Trooper arms and I was able to reduce the lot by about 70%, and at just about the same apparent quality. It's free to use, up to 20 at a time... then you just refresh the page and do another batch. You'll get about 3-4 times the storage.

Additionally, if you wanted to reduce the file size of the leg images to 512x512, you'll get roughly the same pixel density as the torso. In other words, if you're happy with how sharp your torsos look, you'd probably be happy with dropping the leg resolution. It's something you can try out if you're really hurting for space. This will reduce your leg budget by another 75%.

How do you delete your current unused prints
though? @Scrubs

@B1Trash Thanks
