Renpy problem with number of files

I am having problem with the file number. It keep tell me that the file number is higher than 1000.
The game I made from Renpy is short so I don't know how to have it work on the website at all.
Is there any other way to reduce the file number?

It has been a while, If anyone can help me or know where I can find help, please leave a message for me.

Are you using ultra high HD characters, music and background? there shouldent be a way to pass the 1GB mark in renpy without some kind of super high HD assets. In any case it should be possible to lower it by just lowering the  pictures pixel by a little, music into stranded and code neatly clean.

TBH, I only have like 100 line of code in my single file script with 1 BG file that is 0.25 Mb.

I use the Renpy's Butler upload function and it told me that my file has too many files.
It was uploaded as a Zip file btw.

Heya there,

Ren'Py has a built in function that lets you encrypt/archive files into a single file, which I believe helps with beating the file limit!

I don't have Ren'Py directly at hand for reference, but I believe if you open up 'options.rpy' and look near the bottom, there should be a section where you can specify the file types you want to archive. Uncomment as needed and add all the file extensions you're using such as .png, .ogg and so on--and when you deploy the game, all the files should be packaged neatly!
