Mobile Build Optimizer

This tool provides functionality for optimizing mobile builds in 1 click: it automatically optimizes image assets, meshes, audio files and project settings to decrease the size of future build file without visible loss of graphics quality.

Mobile Build Optimizer popup

Available Actions

Optimize Textures

If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every image asset in project and does next things with it:

  • sets maximum texture size to 1024 pixels

  • enables crunch compression with 100% quality level

  • enables mipmap

In most of cases there is no need to have big textures with more than 1024x1024 resolution on mobile devices

Optimize Models

If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every mesh asset in project and does next things with it:

  • disables tangents (tangents are almost useless on mobile devices and doesn't actually affect graphics quality)

  • enables mesh compression

Optimize Audio

If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into every audio asset in project and does next things with it:

  • if audio file is less than 200 Kb, sets load type to DecompressOnLoad

  • if audio file is more than 200 Kb but less than 2 Mb, sets load type to CompressedInMemory

  • otherwise sets load type to Streaming

This optimization reduces CPU usage during audio clips loading and playing and at the same moment it optimizes RAM usage: - small clips are fully downloaded to RAM, it minimizes CPU usage - medium size clips are decompressing in runtime, trading memory use for Audio CPU - big audio clips are not loaded to RAM, they are being streaming from disk instead, it minimizes RAM usage; this method is the most hard for CPU, but usually big audio clips are used not often like small ones, so that's not significant

Optimize Settings

If you click this, Optimizer tool looks into project settings and does next things with it:

  • enables Minify Release flag

  • enables collision meshes baking

  • sets IL2CPP script building backend, if possible (it's more secure and it increases build productivity)

Optimize All

If you click this, Optimizer tool runs all optimizations together. One click and your build is much more optimized!
