GSL Collections

Has anyone been collecting GSL files (with needed object libraries, textures and DPs)?

I'm curious how large a GSL can become, and a huge master collection would help. The world has 2,097,152 gobs (1024 x 2048).

Hi Dick,

A useful query, especially given how many other features seem to have a "hard-coded" limit.

My master PTO install is stock (+gsl additions), with Xaviers Japan & East Asia, all of Maskriders airbase packs, AF Pen32wins PNG plus my own Aleutians, Andamans, Carolines, New Britain & New Ireland gsl packs. Currently stands at 831 gobs, 172284 objects & a file sixe of 8833kb. I avoid putting combat objects into gsl (no flak guns, shipping etc), they need to be incorporated through mission layouts.

But I'm pretty sure our MTO/ ETO flyers can top that ...:hypnotysed:

Rhumbaflappy,

Sorry to say, but the ETO/MTO just isn't that big. With all the Pacific add-ons, that beats it handedly.

My MTO Late install is 1.32 MB, or 254 gobs.
My MTO Early install is 1.44 MB, or 264 gobs.
My ETO Late install is 1.94 MB, or 304 gobs.
My ETO Early install is 1.95 MB, or 306 gobs.
 
My CFS2.gsl files are:

My BPF is 5,727kb.

My ETO West is small: 528KB.

My MTO is 2,325KB.

My PTO USAAC is 2,304KB.

My PTO USN is 2,833KB.

My PTO USMC is 2,833KB.
