Reduce filesize!

[Aeroblyctos]

The campaign I'm currently making is a pretty huge one. Is there anyway to reduce it's filesize with something easily?

1. Reduce image quality
2. Optimize the maps
3. Lower the quality of the textures
4. You can import the models in the campaign importer rather than the map importer
5. Substitute?
6. Who cares, its a campaign... What people are worried about is the constant updates...
7. Compress models...
8. Improvise

Hmmmmmmmm!

I was thinking something like program that can reduce the campaign file easily. Is there a program like I said?

 

[Vicboy]

I know maps only... I think there isn't mainly because campaigns doesn't really contain anything that you could optimize... Maps on the other hand, has some things in which you can optimize...

Well, example making variables/triggers smaller.. that saves space, right?

Um... I don't think so.
Just use Vexorian's Optimizer.
But remember, make a copy if you are going to vex it.
If you vex it, it will make a your map so small that World Editor can't open it.

I don't have a map. I have a campaign.

Well, how much is it?

And I don't think anyone would care that much.

Currently it's about 85mb big. However, after I have added some last pieces for the campaign it can be over 100mb what I fear. I don't want that the campaign will be over 100mb.

 

[Vicboy]

Umm... (noobie), inside a campaign are maps... Optimize the maps inside... xD

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Tooooooooo much work!

In the end, does filesize really matter for a campaign? I mean, really, who's still on 56k these days?

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Well, it's about that hive's maximum upload size for the campaign is 100mb. So I don't want to go over it.

Hmm, from what I know, you use pictures to show "Chapter 1 - Blah Blah" in the start of a map... Why not use an actual terrain and camera to display the chapter... instead of 500kb worth of image...
