SA Decor – Optimized Vehicle Textures
A lightweight resource pack that cuts the texture memory of SA Decor's vehicles by about 5× without changing how they look.
What it does
Most vehicle textures in SA Decor are 512×512, but only 13–16% of each image is actually used. The rest is empty space that still takes up memory and space in the block atlas.
This pack repacks every texture so it only keeps the pixels the models really use, and updates the models to match:
- No pixels resized and no quality lost. Each face of each model shows exactly the same pixels as before. This was checked automatically, face by face.
- Invisible faces removed. Faces pointing at fully transparent parts of the texture are no longer drawn.
- Large single-color areas compressed. Faces painted in one flat color now point at a tiny area of the texture instead of a huge one.

Compatibility

🇫🇷 Version française
Resource pack léger qui divise par environ 5 la mémoire utilisée par les textures des véhicules de SA Decor, sans changer leur apparence.
Ce qu'il fait :
- Les textures 512×512 des véhicules n'étaient utilisées qu'à 13–16 %. Elles ont été réorganisées pour ne garder que les pixels utiles, et les modèles ont été mis à jour.
- Aucune perte de qualité : aucun pixel n'est redimensionné, et chaque face affiche exactement les mêmes pixels qu'avant (vérifié automatiquement).
- Les faces invisibles (zones entièrement transparentes) ont été retirées.
- Les grandes zones de couleur unie pointent maintenant vers une toute petite zone de la texture.
Résultat : environ 47 Mo → 9 Mo de mémoire de textures, sur 48 textures.
Installation : installer SA Decor 1.0.3 (Forge 1.20.1), mettre le zip dans resourcepacks, puis l'activer au-dessus des ressources du mod.
