    Wow, this works great! So easy to use, well thought out and fast. Great work and much needed!

    Such a great addon!
    I would recommend making it more obvious in the application that packed textures cannot be shrunk if they exist, once I used the magnifying mask and saw the error, I unpacked and noticed an immediate RAM difference.

    Less than half the RAM used for lots of UDIM textures from Substance Painter, no difference in renders at all.

    Good addon for saving some precious VRAM. It won't beat a flat-out upgraded PC but this is a good half-way.

    Maybe it would make more sense and purposeful tutorials without creating this disturbing music. I understand that this is much easier than explaining the use of an addon about language in a tutorial.

    I cannot stress how amazing this add-on is. I do a lot of rendering using Daz3d assets, game models, and high-quality hdris and procedural textures. This has COMPLETELY nullified the dreaded "GPU memory" middlefinger Blender would launch at me. One button press, ONE, and three minutes later I'm rendering. I have never had something work so flawlessly, so well, so easily without having to do a bunch of tweaks. Thank you so much for whatever python wizardry your used to conjure this up. 5 stars x 2.

    Amazing addon - it works really well and lets me render complex scenes with my 8 GB of VRAM. Much faster than downscaling/decimating by hand, especially if you're rendering multiple frames.

    Rename it "Lifesaver" and you got a more accurate description.

    Cool feature, but I keep hitting an error that prevents loading the scene I used it on:
    AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'spec' while loading with OpenImageIO

      This is most likely caused by the image being corrupted and OpenImageIO failing to load it. We have improved the error reporting, the changes will be released in an upcoming version of memsaver.

    I installed this add-on, but when I wanted to enable the addon, an error appeared:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 3.5\3.5\scripts\modules\addon_utils.py", line 333, in enable
    mod = __import__(module_name)

      Hi, please update all polygoniq addons to latest versions and restart Blender. This is caused by an interaction of an old version of one of our addons and latest memsaver. Go to our discord https://polygoniq.com/discord if you need more help.
