ORIGINAL TITLE: Larger than expected texture

This is a warning, and only a warning, that you are using a larger sized texture in your level than
some older video cards can handle. It is not a compile error, but it may cause player clients
to sieze up if they
have an older video card, or are in Software Video Mode. You must decide if you are going to abandon
those players, or use another texture. See also Checkered textures.

I had a problem with some 512*512 textures, the thing is that I get an error because of it... (If I remember well).

So, do not use more than 256*256 OR 256*512...

if you want to use 512*512 texture, then go map for source

I used 512*512 and 1024*32. No problems whatsoever. However, to prevent HL from resizing them, set gl_max_size to 1024.
