In the main GP4 directory there will be a folder named GPSAVES, inside will be another folder named carsets, this folder will be where any CSM mods that you've installed will be.
Now go into one of these mod folders and there will be a bunch of folders in there, there will be one for cars, helmets, tyres and all sorts of others.
Explore the one named cars, this folder will contain all of the necessary tex and lod files for whichever cars are included in the mod.
The cars folder is usually organised into different folders for each team, and within them, spilt again for textures, and then the actual car shapes.
In whichever team you choose open one of these tex files and you'll see it appear on screen.
Now change the tab in slimtex to 'batch to TEX' and in there you can drag and drop files that you want to reduce in size.
In this case it might be a good idea to do a little test run, so drag and drop the file that you've already opened with Slimtex, into the big white box that you'll see in the 'batch to Tex' section.
Do this and the file should appear in the list, with details of it's name, image type, transparency, and size and such displayed.
Select this file and then using the options available reduce it'size to half of whatever it was before.
Now to save the file, make sure whatever you do you select a different output path, otherwise you'll overwrite this file and on this occasion that isn't what we want to do.
In the top left corner there will be the option to save to another output path, tick the box and then choose the pathway to be your desktop.
Then hit save and slimtex will, if everything has been done correctly, create a new version of the particular tex file you used, now reduced to the size that you chose earlier, onto your desktop.
And that is how to reduce the size of a file using slimtex.
Using slimtex and the 'batch to Tex' function it is possible to reduce the size of all of the tex files in a entire mods almost instantaneously.
