The DXT1 compression is lossy, but in a consistent manner. all 32x32 tiles will have exactly the same size. To reduce the number of tiles saved in tile file(SMT) you can align graphical elements to a 32x32 pixel grid. MapConv can detect that a tile is repeated and reference it only once. This means that any repetition of the diffuse image, so long as it is aligned to a 32x32 pixel grid will result in a reduction in size.

			* Use tiled textures that are multiples of 32x32 in dimensions.
			* Place features like geovents and metal spots on a 32x32 grid.
			* Repeat as much as possible on a 32x32 pixel grid.

It's possible to reduce the size of the final map by using a repeating pattern in your texture image. mapconv auto detects that pattern and saves each unique tile that you've used as DDS inside the mapfile.
