Is there any way to lower the size of mdx files?

I have a custom keeper of the grove, where I needed the team color and hero glow off, there has been some modifications like adding fire at his feet and attaching wings at his back (that is seperate models) yet..the problem is that he is 385 kb size....that is alot..

Is there any way to reduce this size?

Probably not. The parts of a model that consume the most space are the information dealing with geosets and the info dealing with animations. Unfortunately, complex models need complex animations. 300 or so kb sounds about right for a hero model, and there's probabaly not much you can do about it unless you want to reduce the unit's complexity in some way.

Thanks Ari, I'll just have to live with that then....won't let that model go :P lol

I might make a "wimpy" version, with crappy knockoffs of each model/skin...we will see :)

Thanks
