Asset import SO SLOW!!
Oh my gosh! Ive run into the most annoying thing!! im trying to import maybe 50-100 jpg files into a fresh project and Unity is taking absolutely forever!! its beyond a joke! i initially was importing just on a 1000 images and it has taken all day just to do half of them!! Unity has become unusable! the thing is, it only does this when swapping over to build for iOS in the publish settings.... why is this?
cheers
The main reason is a PVRTexTool which uses a pretty sophisticated compression algorithm (and gives really good compression). Also a compression quality (in the texture import settings) could be your problem. If you have set it to High - it will greatly increase the time to compress image (around 2 times). So one need to be very careful to set it to large number of images. Also setting to Low will help you to decrease the compression time around 2 times too. And in some cases the quality of the resulting image will be acceptable despite of the artifacts.
thank you so much for that explanation! that makes a lot of sense. ill have a play wityh some of the settings ;)
