[Standalone] Corrupted textures in a huge project
Reproduction steps:
1. Open attached "Stripped4" Unity project(4gb file).
2. Open and play "Physics Based Tank Controller/Scene/Demo Scene 2" scene.
3. Look around and notice how the textures looks (Pic attached).
4. Build and run this scene.
5. Repeat step 3.
Reproduced with: 5.3.2p4, 5.3.4p2
Couldn't test it with 5.2 and 5.4 because of errors.
Duplicate case has repro on: 5.4.1p2, 5.5.0a1
Not reproducible by:
- Creating animation with 2300 one pixel sized sprites in an empty project.
- Adding 2300 materials into resources folder in an empty project.
Note:
- It appears that the number of textures in the game makes no difference. It is the size of those textures. Unity can apparently only use 4gb of compressed textures. Our guess is that the issue is a 32 file pointer.
- Player log attached.

same problem in Unity 2017.1.0.p2
Can't believe this haven't been fixed, This is a huge problem for making bigger games. StreamingAssets could be a work around, but not a good solution. Please fix this. -

We REALLY need you to make this change and allow >4gb in the resources file. Someone at Unity had suggested using AssetBundles and I was all excited for a few days, only to discover that loading my mobs from StreamingAssets takes WAY TOO LONG (60+ seconds to start my game), whereas when the same assets were in "resources.assets.resS", the game loaded in just a couple seconds.
I'm having to do something really unconventional (having as many as possible in resources, and the overflow as AssetBundles). This is not acceptable. As I add more to my game, it's going to take longer and longer to load, even in the editor.
P.S. loading just the asset I need at the time I need it was not an option. This is an MMORPG game and even loading one asset (a monster) took long enough that it could kill a player while his assets are still loading.

We are aware of the problems users are facing.
We currently have a limit of 4gb that applies to all our assets.
You can read the details here: https://forum.unity.com/threads/bug-4gb-limit-to-textures-in-standalone-build.441116/#post-2852657
We are working on improving things although this is not a simple issue and is being treated as future feature development, it is not something we can fix as a bug (sorry no backport).
If you are having these issues we recommend you look into asset bundles, they have significant advantages when working with very large projects.
