Repeat Brew　Brew Brew...
I repeated 4 times, file of about 120MB became 60MB.
Played the map in single player, but the problem was not found.
Repeat Brew a never ending?

What's the problem?


The "brewed" version will always be smaller...

no problem.
I want to know the number of times the best of Brew.

What exactly is your problem ?

You work on your map. Save it and then brew it.
brewed file will show up in:

C:\Users\Yourname\Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Published\CookedPC

I believe he thinks by re-brewing the map over and over will make his file size smaller.

 

[Twrecks]

The map.roe in the "unpublished" folder needs to stay there, that is your MASTER file.


The file generated during brewing will appear in the "published" folder, this is the file players/servers use, and will be smaller in size than the unpublished file. Think of it as when you "flatten" layers in Photoshop, it makes the file smaller, but the elements needed to edit have been removed.


You brew only once. Rebrewing a brewed file? Don't.

Do you brew the map, then open the brewed file, and repeat, or do you open the unpublished map each time?

Why should not the Rebrewing?
What problems will cause it?
I can't find it, I think it 's just to reduce the size of the map.

Obviously you don't have any custom textures. Brewing will compress them to a lower resolution (mip map). Rebrewing even more so, till your 2048x2048 is just 1x1.

If using only stock assets, you are just dropping resolution of your lightmaps, making shadows look like poo and wasting your time rebuilding lighting at "production" settings.

To save time, rebuild lighting on "preview" to see what low rez lightmaps look like and get a smaller file size after brewing.

I see! Thank you Twrecks
