Title: Making a Back-up [SOLVED]
Post by: curb47 on February 03, 2021, 02:47:33 AM

Hiya,

I've been making back-ups of my project at regular intervals, but I wondered, it shouldn't be necessary to duplicate the entire game folder, right?

My project folder is currently at 10GB, which is obviously going to come down, and I wondered which folders within the project are the most essential in terms of making back-ups? I shouldn't have to make duplicates or artwork, and models etc right?

Thanks.

hi.
for artwork meshes images etc there is normally no need to back them up more that once.

For other stuff you should look into 'version control' for example github(desktop)

there is a text file on it called gitignore, you can add folder there that are not needed to be backed up.
