gob2 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Forgive me for asking, but when generating viz for precombined, is packing the data into an archive strictly necessary? In other words, can you have loose files for this data as one would have loose files for say, npc textures and meshes? Why or why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, can you have loose files for this data as one would have loose files for say, npc textures and meshes? Why or why not?Both the .nif files and the vis .uvd can be loose but I do suggest packing them into an archive for release of your mod, the loose files could cause other modders issues like them accidentally being packed with their mod. For mod users there’s a possibility of them being overwritten by another mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

payl0ad Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 (edited) Also, as these files are typically many small files, using archives reduces I/O (and thus CPU) overhead to a relevant degree, making load stutter and FPS drops less likely.

payl0ad Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Absolutely, loose files are essentially "debug mode on". Like in a dev environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
