Reduce the file size of a cheated map

Post by Germain »

Hello everyone!

I'm trying to reduce thefile size of a map that is cheated, to mimic the filesize of an uncheated map (that is normaly obfuscate/protected). I noticed that the size goes up if you cheat it, but perhaps there is somthg to do? I am able to delete useless image or reduce them.

Thanks for help boyz

Been on long time, but I believe in the MPQ master use the Compact(FLUSH) function.

The "compact archive" function seems to fail, perhaps because there isn't listfile and so on.
I managed to find a way by deprotecting it with "WC3MapDeprotector", but so far few wrong attributes make the map unplayble.

Any other idea is welcome <3
