Shared DDC
One of our strongest recommendations for teams in the same location is that they set up a shared DDC. This is a network drive that all team members and build machines can read/write to. This then writes off the cost of creating any required DDC data across the entire team. For example, when an artist edits a shader, the DDC data will be written straight to the DDC share.
- Shared DDC: Will be either a network or mapped drive.
An example of a shared drive would be: \epicgames.net\root\DDC-Global-Fortnite
