[Suggestion] Get Oodle's of disk space back

10 votes

Since the awesome RAD folks joined EPIC they made Oodle free to use. I tested your .pak files in the pre-release and it looks like you may be able to get a whole 50% or so compression out of this - and likely faster load times to boot. You'd need to get on to Unreal 4.27 for a "point and click", or perhaps back-port the plugin from the branch.

This would also probably improve the patch times for people, given that steams incremental patching leaves a ton to be desired.

I would love to see what the developers have to say about this!
