Asset image size questions

[Morenu]

1) Is there a recommended size for Asset Images and Tokens? I am currently maxing at 200kb each with 150kb or less preferred. but I am wondering if that is overkill.

2) Is there a file type that works best for size vs quality vs easier for FGU to process? currently my images are Jpg and my tokens are png (token creator's default).

3) I know if I convert the File type of an image (say png to jpg) but the name is otherwise the same, I must relink it as it is a completely new image essentially. BUT if I change or reduce the file size but the name and filetype stay the same, does it change everything it is linked to? I could test this one myself I believe.

Essentially I am trying to see what my best file size to image quality should be on Tokens and images for a 4000+ bestiary so I don't make it too bloated but also have quality images.

Thx.

All files are converted into textures in memory for display, which is why we have recommended asset file sizes by asset type.

File sizes will affect network transport times and load times; which file dimensions will affect memory usage and display speeds. We’ve found that WebP at 75% quality tends to have the best tradeoff for quality vs size.

Thanks. I will play with that and pause what I am doing. maybe I can add the tokens camera if I am going through all this anyway.... I don't use the 2.5D so very unfamiliar with it... ok playing around time...

Thank god for macros... 150 jpgs to Webp in 1 hour... now for the tokens... then onto seeing about the 2.5d and relinking 150+ NPCs to the new assets. curious to see how much the mod shrinks in size

and BTW, the quality took almost no hit but the size was cut in half or more. the new max is 50kb

edit...
And I went from 17.1MB of tokens to 1.8MB... nice

Yeah, the .webp compression is significantly better. That's what we found as well.

AND.... Now you've got me doing all 3 images for around 4000 PFrpg NPCs.... sigh... silly 2.5D Transparent images in Webp format. flat token and a sharable full image. why do I do this to myself. LOL

And so it begins...
