Hello. I'm trying to release my map, and it's quite large (2,500KB).

I want to Optomize it (not even sure what that does, but I hear its important. Protects it right?), and widgetize it (greatly reduces map load time If im not mistaken). I've heard you must be careful when doing both of these to a map, or the map can be messed up badly. So whats the safest way I can go through with this?

Widgetize then Optimize using the Widgetizer and Vexorian's Map Optimizer. Widgetizing greatly decreases loading time, but may increase size, the optimizer decreases size greatly, deleting unnessecary files, such as World Editor-only files. It has options to which files you want to delete.

When you optimize then widgetize, it f*cks up your map badly.

Ok, I downloaded both of them, but it's not working correctly on my computer, I cant get it started. Is there any, ANY chance that I can maybe send it to somebodyn who can widgetize/optomize it for me? I would be extremely grateful, this map has passed its release date.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
