Hi SideFX,
The recent Blackhawk Destruction FX tutorial you posted on May 7th - https://www.sidefx.com/tutorials/blackhawk-destruction-fx/ [www.sidefx.com]
contains a single source file download that is 20.7GB in size that is required to follow along (https://www.sidefx.com/contentlibrary/blackhawk-destruction/)

I would like to highlight what a barrier to participation this is for some users, for example those without unlimited data/bandwidth, slow connections, and unstable connections such as over wi-fi or workplaces that prevent them from ever downloading a single 20GB volume at once.

Please split the files associated with this tutorial into smaller and more reasonable components, to separate the essential .hip file(s) and geometry from the caches/textures/etc. in order to allow users to participate and learn from it.
