Question by cux.soulhunter · Sep 13, 2011 at 07:14 AM · sizedeletecacheclear

Clear Unity Cache

Hello,

I've got a big Project running (> 700MB) and was looking for how I could reduce some size to fit on a regular CD. I discovered a cache folder in \Library.

Is it possible somehow to clear that cache? I tried to just delete everything inside it but then Unity somehow looses association between my models textures and material or something like that.

Hope you can help me out :)

Do you want to fit the published final end-game on a CD, or just the project itself so you can back it up?

I did an terrible mistake once in a project. I decided to remove the cache/meta/lib folder to get rid of the crap and then trying to reimport it. That almost killed my project. I would recommend the function called "Reimport all" (right mousebutton menu ontop) of the project folder.

what ever you try, make sure you have a COPY/BAC$$anonymous$$UP of the whole thing somewhere else. Close Unity down first. $$anonymous$$ake copy, then start Unity again and try your clean-up.

thank you guys!

@$$anonymous$$eltdown: I wanted to "backup" the project on a CD.

@BerggreenD$$anonymous$$: Yes I of course have always 2-3 copies/backups of my projects :) I'll try the reimport all function.

Best way to backup is actually to use 'export package' with dependencies and all items in the library selected. This will carry along updates and windows/mac versions the best.
