Hey guys, thought I'd pass this along to the rest of you builders.
I found this tool last night and ended up using it to remove 800 MB of duplicate files in my override.
No idea if any of you are using a tool for this, or a different tool, or whatever. But in case you want to do the same, this was a pretty nice way of handling it. The instructions were good and there are various ways to speed up the process of finding duplicates and either deleting them or (more safely, as I did) moving the duplicates to another location. And there's some filtering you can do for things like keeping the most recent version of files, or keeping all files in a certain sub-folder and thus removing duplicates in other folders, etc. Pretty handy.
I needed to do this to my override because I knew I had duplicate files in there from all the additions I've made over the past few months. While building my campaign I've done a lot of downloading of 3rd party content and stuffing it into the override. As I place things in areas I take the textures/tiles/etc., and thus they become a permanent part of my campaign, I move them to as sub-folder that I'll later put into a HAK. But in the meantime there's a lot of files in the override, and duplication was getting to be an issue.
