Is it necessary to "Use Pak File" for PakBlacklist-Development.txt to work?

I am trying to limit the size of my app by using PakBlacklist files. However, using “Use Pak File” increases our load times too much to justify its use. Is there a way to blacklist files without using “Use Pak File”?

I am asking in regards to iOS development.

Edit: I have discovered that this method works for Android apk without using Pak File. I wanted to know if the same was true for iOS.

Hey CinnamonSouls,

You can permanently remove the files that you do not want to show up in your game, if you do not want to blacklist them. If you’re planning on using these files later on, perhaps save them in another location outside of the project instead of deleting them permanently.
