[BTS] Walkthrough in May

[StephanM]

Fixed the alucard hat (currently a helm), also added some of that bandage or w/e it was (based on google search) to the hat itself, felt it was missing on the original model where it was a plain red hat with some feathers.. (?)
Will fix the whole set later on though.

Did a side fix on saving some more kbs on the following maps;

• Skillmap v1
• Skillmap v2
• Skillmap v3
• Superflip

What does it mean?
Well the three maps used a lot of textures from maps like town, castle and mansion.
With some code adjustment I was able to remove the exact same textures from the skillmaps and let it grab it from the other maps.

Finalised the optimisation for the few maps I was working on yesterday;

• Complex current: 2929 kb
• Complex optimised: 1620 kb

• Skillmap V1 current: 639 kb
• Skillmap V1 optimised: 500 kb

• Skillmap V2 current: 1067 kb
• Skillmap V2 optimised: 345 kb

• Skillmap V3 current: 1859 kb
• Skillmap V3 optimised: 591 kb

• Skillmap V4 current: 196 kb
• Skillmap V4 optimised: 195 kb

• Superflip current: 3389 kb
• Superflip optimised: 1550 kb

139 + 722 + 1268 + 2239 = 4368 kb saved (meaning removed from the total client)

This includes re-mapping with the code, a few lightmap fixes (thanks to Hellsniper) and some minor texture changes where some images were outdated (maps are nearly 10 years old).


Edit: added Skillmap V4 and Complex on the main page of being optimised. (196 > 195 (1 kb) due lightmap / 2929 > 1620 (1309 kb)
