Texture size.

Post by Svanrog »

I'm currently making a crate model for my map. It's about 48x48 Units big and I wonder what resolution I should use on the texture. What do the hl2 crates use? I'm rather new to modelling and neither want to have too low nor too high res textures on it.

The wooden crates from hl2 are using a 512*512 texturemap.

Go with 256x256 for something that small.
