''Investigating this requires reversing the [[resource system]] (in the executable) and possibly patching it.'' | |||
The [[resource size table]] (RSTB) determines how much memory should be allocated to a given resource (i.e. the size of the resource heap). Unfortunately, the sizes that are listed in there don't quite match the actual file size. | The [[resource size table]] (RSTB) determines how much memory should be allocated to a given resource (i.e. the size of the resource heap).

A possible way to check whether the listed size is exact or approximate is to dump the memory of the game process and investigate resource heap usage. | A possible way to check whether the listed size is exact or approximate is to dump the memory of the game process and investigate resource heap usage. | ||
In any case, figuring out how to calculate sizes correctly for complex resources or rewriting parts of the resource system to remove the fixed heap size limitation would be extremely useful. | |||
