Unreal Engine Marketplace – Assets Cleaner – Project Cleaning Tool

When a project has been in development for a while, or after a period of prototyping, it is common to have a lot of assets that are not used anymore.

These assets are taking up disk space, slowing the editor and build times down, and affecting build size.


Are you tired of having to manually migrate assets over to a new project whenever you want to delete assets you no longer use?

These days are over! Assets Cleaner takes care of it for you!


Requires UE 4.23 (or higher)

Features:

See Assets disk size

Important/Additional Notes:

Warning message shows up when unused redirectors are found, with a step by step guide on how to fix Redirectors in the Content Browser. It is recommended to fix up redirectors before using the tool.
This tool requires the plugin "AssetManagerEditor" (part of Unreal editor) to be enabled (it is by default) to load successfully.
It is not recommended to use the custom blueprint functions that come with this plugin (found in the AssetCleanerPlugin section), as they are meant for the plugin's internal use only and support is not provided for those.
