Description
### I am planning on implementing this myself
No
### Describe your request
My `Mods` directory is about double the size it should (intuitively) be, because the `Cache/` contains virtually every large file from my installed mods (it's about 98% audio files). Wouldn't it be much more efficient to just unpack *all* the files from all the mods to separate directories - one per mod - and not have a separate "cache"?
### Additional context
I attempted to prevent the audio banks from being extracted to disk by changing the advanced option `UnpackFMODBanks` to false, but this crashed with SIGABRT after a second or two on the main menu of the Strawberry Jam modpack. Not totally sure what that option does or if it's currently supported.
