When you load an .obj as a morph target onto a figure/prop, only the vertex information is used and converted to deltas. And spawned morphs are also delta only. Still, many vertices with 3 deltas per morph, it may grow large. I've written a script to consolidate all morphs into a single one. Applied to Victoria 2 it reduced a scene from 22.5 MB to 3.66 MB. Quite a difference, I'd say. Currently it is P6 only, it uses P6 dialogs. I'm working on writing a Tk interface so that it works in P5 too. ProPack users are out of luck, ProPack Python does not support the required spawning methods.
The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
