Strange. I just came back to WC3 and I just finished with one of my maps, and then I used this program to protect my map, and never seen this problem before, and the new problem is that when I tested my map without protecting, the gold mines did not turned to neutral hostile from neutral passive. Then, after I protected this map, the gold mines turned to neutral hostile from neutral passive. Anybody here know how to fix this? Thanks.

Everything about the Tool's options still works with the exception of Script Optimization and Compress Names, the former causes Neutral Passive to turn into Player 16, and the latter is unavailable with the removal of the wc3patch.mdl.

I love this tool but I am getting the error message "Optimize string usage: Extremly big number of mods in object. Adress: 1119749: 5983" because my map has a rather large war3map.wts string file with 56014 entries. This error occurs when the optimizer is loading the ability data of my map. Many hero abilities have 100 levels. How can I fix this? I need to use the tool BECAUSE I have so many map strings and I want to optimize the loading time.

Did you manage to fix it? I've run into a similar problem on the new patch, though my map also has 3600 custom objects and most of those have tooltips so I am wondering if it's just reached a critical mass of strings.

Not that i have ever needed to protect my maps, i will add most of the maps I do make are from 1.27b map editor.
Would this tool still be useful for any of those maps?
Yes, you can still use the tool to optimize your map file size without turning on map protection. Not that file size is much of a problem anymore nowadays, but it's still available.

I am pretty sure, that "Zlib Deflate" option with "Auto Buffer Size" causes Fatal Error after pressing F9 (Quests button) for big size maps (>200 MB). It is relevant for pre-reforged versions (such as 1.26).

To cause Fatal Errot, you should:
1) Run the map
2) Collapse the game window
3) Return to the game
4) Press F9

Be careful with this tool.

Test map: F9FatalTest3.w3x
