Wc3 Map Optimizer

well i was able to dl it but idk if it works

err b4 i dl this, wat does it do lol

Vexorian's Map Optimizer v3.9b

-Newest Version

Yo Vex the links broken! I really wanted to download this optimizer to...

Download 3.8 here.

I widgetized and optimized my map, then, all ok, but, when I protected the map, everything disappears, the map size decreased from 2.5 mb to 300 kb and crashes in the loading screen!
I can't protect an optimized map

Hm.. year nice tool. Bur is there a way to get the source code? I think you wrote this tools in C++, or not?

it has in it the source,and this is not C++ is Delphi,if you have Delphi or Pascal editor you can open the files vex put(*.pas) or just open with notepad

a vex the link to the new version doesn't work it says not found

DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS FILE

IT IS OUTDATED.

Please check the one at : http://www.wc3campaigns.com/showthread.php?t=57247

Yes, this is

Since it takes so much time to get the file updated here, I'll ask you to check the link I am giving right above this text, here is the latest version of the optimizer (2.2) Has TONS of important improvements, bug fixes

Vex, is this the program ive heard about where you made it accidently protect maps and deprotectors cant open them?

this version was bugged, the new one is at http://www.wc3campaigns.com/showthread.php?t=57247

Great, Vex, you've found the Remove Weather Effect bug gj with notepad or however you found it

YOu are wrong, in something, the .j file always have the triggers, this removes the gui part, the trick are the obfuscation methods that while they are meant to optimize the script, they also beat many map data reconstructing programs (called unprotectors)

Can't you tell what the protection part of the optimizer actually does.

When i tested it was only the triggers that was removed (and put into the .j file).

But couldn't people just use the triggers that already are made as "base" and then make new units and abilities... And then finally steal the map???

No, it only replaces the functions when they do exactly the same, anyways I remember replacing this with a fixed version yesterday, but anyways, till that moment, use http://www.wc3campaigns.com/showthread.php?t=57247 to get the newest

Need not to thank, cause I submitted it earlier. I encountered that same problem with Heavy Locker, and only 10% of the times I got it to work, and even with that the map always got corrupted when play. Compressing maps is good since it can compress a map with 50 custom icons 10 skins 3 models to only 1.18m

btw you've got the map so give me some suggestions , working toward 1.00.

edit: does antibj replace the forgroupbj with codes that prevent memory leak? I was thinking to manually replace those functions with safe codes but there are just too many...

Well understand, this is the first reported case of a bug in ANtiBJ and I needed you to pm me in wc3c with that link, thanks too much for finally doing this, but next time better check the readme text file that comes with the zip, please.

And it wouldn't become much faster, just somehow faster, The main reason for lag are memory leaks, and this is not going to fix memory leaks, the speed gets better when the map doesn't have memory leaks. And antibj is the main reason for the speed improvement, it isn't afterall a great improvement but helps.

Edit: I only needed the map script, not the whole map, but thanks anyways

I did not need you to fix the problem for me, I only let you know that there was a bug with the AntiBJ in your program, and fixing this would help others if they run into the same problem, also improve your program.

For me, I simply unchecked that box and it worked. If you want to look into the specific map, this is the address:

btw, I never expected to be lucky . Map size reduced but the game is still the same...laggy

How do you want me to fix it, if you don't even send the map script? I am not a psiquic , and you were actually lucky I checked the comments here, even heard of pms?

The Anti BJ option made some maps not playable. And this took me so much time to figure out. Your program runs too slowly compared to some others --> wish it could be faster.

4.5/5, gj, would give 5 but I was pissed when had to try 20 times to figure out this problem. Fix it!

Sounds pretty nice to me .

Very useful. I guess this is one of the best tools on this website.

Depends, if your map was completelly done in GUI and doesn't have leaks, it will be a huge upgrade, but it won't fix memory leaks.

How many % does this program ~ makes a map faster?

At this moment it will simplify the functions, but soon it will also delete them and replace the if then elses with correct ones

Does this delete functions that are the same as others and replace the calls of those to call only one function? ex: You have a one condition in GUI Ifs and this deletes the extra functions created by WE and makes the trigger only call one function. If it doesn't, that's something you might want to add.

I think it is for language stuff, probably didn't fix the UTF issue correctly

Strange thing: when i've optimised map made in цугб editor still opens it but warcraft...
Anyway i will rate it 5.

This works by optimizing the map's mpq and script.

Um...just one question....will it actually delete any terrain, triggers, unit data, or imported items?

Only if you tell it to.

Yes, explain how this works

I remember including a readme in the zip.

ya he prolly didn't make this tho

I made it.

Vexorian great joob. This tool is great

I have to thank you for making this map. This program is a lot better than heavy locker. For those that don't know, heavy locker never work. HEHE ^^! Well, I like the way the person made the program. Keep it up, MAN!

Wll, thanks a lot , this is my first real program I ever made, heavylocker actually works well excepting the latest version, which is bugged for some reason, the version done before it has more chances to work.

BTW this works in windows 98 too
