Question about using textures for multiple objects

Ryan Newitt

I'm curious about best practices for using a single texture space for multiple objects.
Currently I'm working on cash register, checkout counter and safe. I'm using one 1024x1024 texture for all three props. Is this a good way to save on texture space, or should I just move to smaller res and put them in there own texture space?

Thanks

If the props are all meant to be loaded in the same area, then its more efficient to have multiple props share a large texture than have a couple smaller textures.

You could create a texture atlas and put all the "unimportant"models in there,and its better to use one texture sheet for multiples object.
