Attempting to Open Campaign Folder results in hung computer

[andrewcr]

Hi,

5e, latest version of unity (did a forced update to ensure latest version).

When I open assets and then attempt to open Campaign the computer locks up.

You can open the folder using the folder button at base of page without trouble.

As a note: I have had trouble for years opening files in assets - very slow - nowhere near as quick and Doug and the artist on their livestreams. The files are all on SSD.

Any ideas?

Do you have a LOT of assets?

Not sure what a lot of assets means. Do you mean in the one campaign folder or in all the folders.

I have 270.

I decided to act on your advice and dig deeper. Many of the files were way too large so I have batched them using Affinity Photo to WEBP format and only 1 file is just over 3MB, and more than 50% are less than 1MB - seams to have improved things and ended the crash

Well done.
You might also look at the biggest ones and see how many pixels they are.
SW recommend that you limit images to 4000x4000 pixels - certainly some people are running bigger maps but the more you go over that guidline and the more images that are bigger than that will risk having an impact on performance.

Hi, I Have made them 1920 maximum wide which is a good size for a 1080p monitor.
