See [here](https://nfrechette.github.io/2023/09/17/acl_in_ue/) for details.\n\nThis repository will remain mostly read-only following the next minor release and only accept critical fixes. Contributions should instead be directed to the Unreal Engine main development repository where the ACL Plugin fork lives (under **Engine/Plugins/Animation/ACLPlugin**).\n\nSupport questions and requests should be directed to the Unreal Developer Network (UDN).\n\n====================================================\n\n# Animation Compression Library Unreal Engine Plugin\n\nThis plugin integrates the [Animation Compression Library](https://github.com/nfrechette/acl) version [v2.1.0](https://github.com/nfrechette/acl/releases/tag/v2.1.0) within [Unreal Engine 4 and 5](https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog). It is suitable for every animation clip and platform as it features a low memory footprint, high accuracy, and very fast compression and decompression.\n\nCompared to **UE 5.2.0**, the ACL plugin compresses up to **2.9x smaller**, is up to **2x more accurate**, up to **2x faster to compress**, and up to **6.3x faster to decompress** (results may vary depending on the platform and data).\n\nThe documentation on how to use it can be found [here](./Docs/README.md) along with performance results.\n\nYou can find the ACL plugin on the Unreal Marketplace [here](https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/animation-compression-library).\n\n## Getting started\n\nIf you would like to contribute to the ACL UE Plugin, make sure to check out the [contributing guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md).\n\n**NOTE: If you clone this repository, you MUST run the script under [.\\Tools\\prepare_release.py](./Tools/prepare_release.py) to package the plugin. It pre-processes some required files.**\n\n## License, copyright, and code of conduct\n\nThis project uses the [MIT license](LICENSE).\n\nCopyright (c) 2018 Nicholas Frechette\n\nPlease note that this project is released with a [Contributor Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).
