Vexorian Optimizer files disappearing after optimizing

[puffdragon]

As the title says, before optimizing map is widgetized and is working normally. After optimization some files just disappear! In fact all the files are interlinked cause they are a /btn/disbtn/model/projectile/attached model and their textures, but they all vanish....

Any idea on why this is happening, and if there is a way to stop optimizer from deleting this files?

You mean disappear in World Editor but still visible in actual game? In that case, Vexorian Optimizier purposely remove the map's mpq file list to make the file size smaller. Try experimenting with the check boxes under "Extra cleaning". If I recall correctly, one option disables it from being opened in WE while another one only removes the mpq file list.

Try turning off "clean blp" option to see if it makes a difference. If it does then the BLP files must be re-encoded in an invalid way due to the program being written with wrong BLP specifications. In a recent patch they changed the BLP loading behaviour such that it is more robust but also more fussy when it comes to loading malformed jpeg content BLP files.
