Trying to find out why a single 4K car texture pack causes my FPS to drop from 120 → 60 on a 4090.

Not a VRAM problem (16GB used / 24GB). Not stream memory either (extender configured).

Profiled with NSight: looks like the bottleneck is mip generation on streaming. Pack ships with pre-generated mips but the engine isn't using them - regenerating on load.

Fix in progress: rebuilding the .ytd with explicit mip flags. Will update.
