Hi!
I'm trying to send a ghost structure over to PlayFab. I serialized the struct into JSON but the file is way too heavy and I don't think it's the right solution.
Would binary serialization be a possible solution? Is it possible to store binary data in Playfab? How?
Thankssss
May I ask what is the estimated size of ghost replay file? Usually, it is fine to store it in Entity Files. You may also define a retention time to make sure the total storage size is under control (delete legacy files via scheduled tasks).
I will be honest, no idea. What could be the ideal size of a ghost replay file? How much is too much?
And one more thing, how can I upload the binary data via Blueprints on UE4?
There is no detailed ideal size because it depends on your game design. We simply suggest as small as possible. There are 300 KB value limit per single Player Data and 2KB for each Entity Object. There is no limit for Entity Files for single player, but the title shares 50,000 GB limit.
If using Entity file, simply call InitiateFileUploads and an uploadUrl will be returned in the callback and you are able to use a HTTP put call to upload the file.
