When I am importing my (with sketchup created) model, the program sais something about 64k textures and then it import it. But when I load it ingame, it froze.

What am I doing wrong?

You are using Textures which have to much kb. So the DS has a storage of 64kb for textures which it can use (I think I'm rigth ). Best is: Use smaller textures or convert you images to jpg. Jpg is allways smaller then PNG I was able to make a HD level with Jpg's

Not reading the warning message carefully.

When your textures occupy more than 48k, the editor warns you because if the level model's textures take more than ~48k of VRAM, the level may freeze or textures may get corrupted.

Also, a note about that: looking at the sizes of the textures' image files is not a good way to estimate the size they're going to take. The importer converts textures to formats that the DS can use, that is, opaque textures are compressed into type5 textures, and translucent textures are converted into either A5I3 or A3I5. Perhaps I should add some size estimator of some kind...
