*Combine as many parts of a single Model to a single texture - the maximum texture size is 4096 x 4096. | *Combine as many parts of a single Model to a single texture as you can - the maximum texture size is 4096 x 4096. | ||
*Don't use different parts of a single texture for different models. Split the texture into smaller parts then. | *Don't use different parts of a single texture for different models. Split the texture into smaller parts then. | ||

* | *Avoid transparency like the plague: remove the alpha channel from textures if they are non-transparent. | ||

*Use power of two dimensions for textures. Don't worry if your image would get stretched in the texture, you can fix that with the mapping on the model. | *Use power of two dimensions for textures.
