Unused Textures

[Du Mhan Yhu]

Im trying to figure out, in Slade 3 or XWE is there a function where I can make it get rid of any unused textures? Or am I going to have to do it manually?

XWE can list unused textures, but it can't get rid of them and their ascioated patches.

I'd imagine Gez will be along any moment to talk about Slade3 :p

Slade v3 has "Remove unused patches" option, found in Archive menu ->clean up.

And the list will be wrong because of scripting ot something else ;) Plus textures don't eat much space.

That's all?

lol I thought that was kinda big for just textures.

Anyhow ill give go check out the "remove unused Patches" in Slade 3.

Thanks for the help people!

Does "remove unused patches" actually check whether textures are used in maps, though, or does it just remove patches that aren't referenced by any textures in TEXTURE1? If it's the latter, it's probably not going to help you much.

EDIT: I tried again, it removes unused Patches. Seems to work. Again Thanks for the help all.

Yes.

Textures themselves are small. If I understand Doom wiki correctly, 22 bytes + 10 for every patch used.
