      @jeffd The size limit is imposed by the compiler, not HISE.

          @jeffd @d-healey Can I ask why you would want an image larger than 50MB? Generally, in a real0time system, it's usually sagacious to keep things small. Perhaps there's another way to accomplish what you want?

              @d-healey I figured as much—but is the engine HISE uses optimised for that? I had 75MB Lottie that I really wanted to include in my plugin, until I figured this might time-out the UI thread?

                @clevername27 This only applies to bitmaps I think, not sure about lotties. HISE can handle 100s of mb of images, but they should be distributed in a data file rather than embedded in the plugin.

                  yes, i meant for all my images and filmstrips etc.
                  not just one image.

                    @d-healey said in the size limit for image files is still 50mb?:

                    @clevername27 but they should be distributed in a data file rather than embedded in the plugin.

                    If the images aren’t embedded into the plugin, does HISE convert and combine them into a data file?

                      @orange Yes, check the pooled resources folder

                        @d-healey So Do we need to copy the Pooled Resources folder to the folder created with the same name in the appData folder?

                          @orange Copy the .dat files that you need directly to app data. https://docs.hise.audio/working-with-hise/settings/project.html#embed-image-files

                          Also if you want to be certain the pooled files are up to date you can use Export >> Export Pooled Files to Binary Resource.
