Remove Locales folder from Desktop deployment

Aloe Guvner · 2018-08-28T08:00:41+0900

I deployed to Desktop/Windows, and noticed a folder was created for "locales" (~34Mb ). When I delete this folder from the deployment, the game will not run. Does anyone know why this folder is here, and how to safely remove or reduce it? I would rather not include 34MB of bloat if this folder is not necessary to run the game.

I'd like to know this too.

Looks like NW.js uses it, probably as a Chromium thing.
Try deleting everyting except en-US.pak and en-US.pak.info

Thanks!

I tried it and the game runs, effectively cutting out >30Mb in the deployed size. Now I wonder if people outside the US/Canada will be able to play it...
