[QUOTE="and-81, post: 136289, member: 11844"] Given that our skins consist of so many small files, this might actually speed up the loading of skin elements... Instead of having many small files spread out on the hard disk (even defragmented the individual files may not be contiguous on the platter) you would have one file that theoretically would be quicker to access. If it speeds things up and doesn't introduce any significant complication for skinners then I guess it should go in. If it doesn't make a quantifiable difference to skin loading times then we leave it out. But we won't know until we try ... I can't see this as being a difficult change to make, does someone want to make a proof of concept? Cheers, [/QUOTE]
