the RAM usage is a LOT smaller, since it only stores the png decompressed information. |

But isn't that the same as a bitmap, or do you mean decompressed from the lvz? |

This would only be true for zones that are using default graphics. Any graphic that has been altered or replaced will be downloaded and used when you enter that zone. |

UNLESS you put it into that zone's folder, extracted out. Ships.bm2 will override ships.bm2 inside a .lvz if in the same folder. |

Actually you can convert all the bm2's in your graphics folder to png to save a load of space. |
