-pack=false Packs color values, improves performance in viewer (but can cause lower precision positions and colors). Requires using special packed material&shader in viewer. Default is false

-packmagic=64 Optional color packing adjustment integer. Increase this value is you have large tiles and notice precision issues in colors. Default is 64
