In the past, missing medium LODs often caused crashes, forcing many creators to manually duplicate files and append _hi to make things work.
Big thanks to packfile (fix for crashes when no medium LOD exists), this workaround is no longer necessary, saving significant file space.
This tool, using Python and packaged to exe, is designed to clean up those extra, now unnecessary files, helping you optimize your stream resources. 😄
- Specifically designed to clean up duplicate-pasted files.
- Scans for and identifies
_hiYFT files that were created as a workaround for missing medium LODs. - Provides tools to select, review, and delete unnecessary duplicates.
- What is size margin?
- Allows you to define a margin (in KB) for file size comparison when _hi files differ slightly from their counterparts.
- Checks all
streamdirectories for duplicate files, regardless of extension. - Allows users to quickly locate files and their duplicate directories via right-click context menu.
- Simplifies the process of managing large resource libraries.
- New! You can now paste an external file list into a text area and check whether those files exist in the specified Stream root directory.
- The tool will compare each file name in your list against the files found in the stream directories.
- If a file is found only once, its absolute path is shown.
- If multiple copies exist, all locations are listed under a duplicate label.
- If a file is not found, it is marked as NOT FOUND.
Always back up everything you plan to modify! It’s a good habit to avoid any unintended issues.
Identify and manage duplicate YFT files with ease.
Locate and resolve file collisions in stream directories.
Paste your file list and verify duplicates or missing files in the stream directory.
