Massive content pack crashes stardew valley

[HeartoLazor]

Hello,

I was porting the pokemon mystery dungeon sprites to Fashion Sense Stardew Valley body format, ending in a naive approach which can be optimized with over 3000 bodies with an average of 2048x2048 px. When I tried to load this into Stardew Valley after 15 min the game crashed, I think the reason is because it trying to load all the textures into video memory in RGBA, whith with 2048x2048 textures reached the limit on my computer VRAM (dedicated gpu with 6gb vram and 32gb of system ram).

So my question is there is any technical reason of why it's loading all of the assets at start?, Should be better to load the assets when selected in the menu, when a save is selected or player is connected and for searching create a cache or something with the portrait assets?
With that change Fashion Sense can support infinite number of skins.

If you want to test it on your side, here are the bodies:

Download Fashion Sense's Example pack:
https://github.com/Floogen/FashionSense/tree/development/FashionSense/Examples/%5BFS%5D%20Example%20Pack
and copy the bodies into the Bodies folder of fashion sense to test it.

I was thinking for optimizing this without breaking old code. Maybe the reason of loading the assets at start is to cache the previews for search?, If so, maybe we can add an optional image that only has the four frames of preview for the search in the same format of the frames from the json and if the system finds the portrait.png, load that instead of the whole spritesheet and the spritesheet is loaded only when the skin is actually used.
