Image Memory Question

Hi guys

In the C2 manual, it states that it is recommended to keep image memory under 100mb per layout, in order to target a larger number of devices.

I'm just wondering if anything has changed now that I'm using the C3 beta, and whether if it's perhaps safe to increase this a little?

I'm finding it a little limiting when working with large animated sprites in HD.

Any feedback would be awesome

Thank you in advance!

Depends on what device your target platform is. Modern phones have 2-3 gigs of shared memory and PCs generally can also utilize system ram to supplement graphics memory (it can cause slowdown in terms of frame rate though).

On the other hand, it is NEVER a good idea to use all available memory. You also have no way of knowing how much memory is allocated to other software on each target device.

Personally I would aim to keep it under 512 to be safe for most modern devices.
