[Teaa]

+1 the amount of infection events I can see happening from this o_o

[Naffen]

it would be cool but that shits 100MB

+1 as it can add a lot of rp and immersion

[Alec]

Ngl, this most likely won't get added due to it being 100mb, no matter how many +1s it has

[Eclipse]

-1

This is pretty cool but its 100mb for a pretty niche vehicle which I don't think will be used that often.

[Mitchell]

-1 dude thats way too much for a single prop.

Possibly find a way to compress and optimise the file size. Intel would have to discuss it with the prop maker but it ain't impossible.

Looks like fun.

I’ll say -1,100mb is a steep price for a vehicle. There’s quite a few other things that can take that place.

I've taken a look at the files.
It appears that the creator of this addon has taken it and upscaled the textures by an unnecessary/ungodly amount. (4096 x 4096 to be exact)

To put it simply, VTF files (the textures used for source) are often compressed, but upon extracting one out of the 10 texture files, I was met with a single texture worth 65mb. But it doesn't end there. Images themselves are often compressed, so the actual file size of one texture in this folder is 173mb. That's not okay.

As as simple test, I downscaled it (to 1096x1096 to be exact) while making sure to maintain any "quality" it may have had before, and it's total file size is now 11MB. This can obviously be further improved.

This can easily be optimized with the creators permission, so I'd give it a +1 as it seems a fair addon.

File Size to large. Just make your own using props.
