"Reformatting" a map?

[Demonfaze]

Is it possible to reformat or optimize a map for editing, not in-game?

One of my maps just takes forever to save/load up in the world editor. I have an extremely high-end computer that I got three days ago, and it still takes about half a minute to save/load the map.

I was thinking copy & paste everything into a new map, which would work except that my doodads don't copy over since many of them have their heights manually modified (ctrl+pageup/down).

Anyone have ideas? Thanks.

I think that Vexorian's Map Optimizer can do some optimizations without corrupting the file, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Yeah I tried Vex's optimizer but it didn't do very much.

Well, there's not much you can do. The editor has to load all of the information so you will be able to edit it.

Most likely you have a very high number of preplaced stuff.
There is no real solution here...don't save so often or make another map for developing just the triggers if that's the problem.
