Why is the Windows Store app install so big?
I recently made a game for android and windows store. android apk is 25mb, windows store is 30 mb. But when i install the windows store app to WP8.1 mobile (Lumia 430), it shows that the install size is 427MB. Woah, Why so big? and what can i do to reduce the size?
Using Unity 5.3.5p1.
It was really stupid of me. I had selected the same texture compression method for all my build types. I was using 16 bit compression for all, android, windows, standalone. It does have a small size for android, but like i said windows size was huge.
I have now selected the crunched method for windows. shared assets size down from 395mb to 33mb.
I'm not sure what is going on, but the .appx file that is created is a zip file. If you rename it to .zip it's easy to open up and see what is inside. Maybe that'll help find a way to reduce the size.
Hmm, turns out i have 395$$anonymous$$B worth of shared assets in about 80 scenes.
Each shared asset seems to be about 5-10 mb each. There isnt much different between those scenes. I will post when i know more. Thanks
