large actives not visible

[brawltaunts22]

on older PCs when I have sent my friends applications with actives larger than 1280 x 720, they end up just not appearing at all. is there some reason for this?

Never heard of this happening before

I think you're using HWA and your friend's GPU doesn't support texture sizes larger than 1024x1024, so it's the width causing problems.

If that is the case, just split the image up so the textures are smaller?

[brawltaunts22]

is there an extension i can use that isn't an active that can display an image and scale it from something internal? i am concerned of having too many actives on screen if i split the image up.

How big is this image? I wouldn't think it would change performance at all, splitting it up. Go ahead and do that and then test it. It's better than everyone freaking out about invisible actives, I would think.
