My world map got glitched after i optimized the textures and stuff. Help? When i click on overworld map it is empty with a tiny map on the upper left hand side.
Great work on the tool. Since I've started using it I can't live without it. I've also run into similar problems with certain meshes. And as I also noted over at PES, the NifTexture program is also unable to load these meshes. My one request though, if you are still working on this program would be to update the log with whatever operations were completed when it crashes, instead of only updating the log after a successful run. Thanks again!
You should include the ability to remove all non-necessary files from the Data Files directory. This includes Thumbs.db (implemented), but also .txt, .pdf, etc.
But the real reason I posted is that I get an .NET error when attempting to optimize "mesheserrain_rock_bc_15.nif. The error is:
************** Exception Text ************** System.InvalidCastException: Conversion from string "
Still another crash. meshes\Pl\a_ebony_cuirass_f.nif. Crash log:

It seems files with "entrance" and files with "01" in their name give the program problems. I've had about six others that I didn't specify here, but the crash log is the same.

the image shown is garnish. I changin this in other version.
+ yes, is this a GUI for a command line nvcompress ... and more ... + this verify max compression for DXT1c, DXT1a or DXT3. (if image not requires alpha channel). + this verify errors in meshes (references) e images (alpha channel covering) and fix. + this reoder images in folder or names.
The fact that the one image you show is obviously Oblivion related does not inspire confidence given the name of this application. Is this a port of another program or a GUI for a command line utility?

Another crash. meshes\f\terrain_cairn_al_01.nif Here's the log:

There seems to be a problem with the meshes with "terrain" in their name.

Hope you can get it squared away.
