Deleting all the skins but leaving mods and levels? Skins are way smaller so it should be the other way around.

OpenLieroX.pdb is needed so that the automatic crash reporter works.

Automatic level download should work in most cases. Only requirement is that it is uploaded in Filebase. So all those level can savely be removed -- when you join a server (even when the game has started already), it should work. However, it might be a bit buggy sometimes. (Multiple bugs where already reported).

Automatic mod download doesn't work yet. While in lobby, manuel download (by clicking on the download button next to the mod) might work. Probably even more buggier though than the level download.

These both features where planned as mandatory for such a minimal version.

Error: Whenever I try to start a game the whole thing crashes, then it brings me back telling me that it crashed. Anyone know why this is happening?

Probably you removed something what cannot be removed. However, the game should never crash. Do you still have the openlierox.pdb in that directory so that the automatic crash reporter works and sends us the information about this crash? Otherwise I cannot really tell. I also need the log file of course.

You cannot really remove anything except maps, mods, skins and themes. (Well you spoke about the dedicated script and other stuff but they are maybe 1kb or so, also it would not be possible to use the ded server in that case anymore.)

We planned such a minimal version a few times. But there was never very high (or any) request for it yet and so we considered it as not that important.

I didn't delete anything besides MW, Liero v1.0, all maps besides dirt map, and all skins besides default skin. That should answer both your question about what I deleted. (to albert) I will send you the log for today and yesterday, as these are the days I tried to work on the file.

Delete MW as well then, it is not part of original/default settings.

I was leaving MW because it is one of the most played mods in the game.

So what? NinjaTaro is one of the most used skins in game and you removed it. Levels like LFR, JB, FF etc. are most played levels and you removed them. Understand what I mean?

I recommend you strip the following:

All other mods except:
-Liero v1.0
-MSF II
-MW 1.0
-Food Fight 0.6
-WH40K 0.13

All other maps except:
-Fossil Facility
-Castle Strike
-Liero Factory (revisited)
-Castle Wars
-Blat Arena
-Complex
-Dirt Level
-Ore Quarry
-Wormmountain
-Jail Break
-Jukke Dome
-Lamda

All other skins except the top100 or something like that.

But you can just dl maps and mods in game so what's the point?

I just took out all mods except Liero v1.0 and MW v1.0, all maps besides dirt level, all skins besides default (skins aren't needed so why add in skins besides default when it isn't needed? Im trying to strip as much as I can. without f'ing up the game.)

Because I don't expect every single new player to know where to download and I don't expect them to have the brains to do so either. My list would only have a few mods and some more maps. Skins don't take much size so might aswell leave a hundred.

those .dll files and that error report files are what take so much space. It doesn't matter if there are one or two or 5 maps when there is a 50mb error report file.

Yea exactly. :) That is why we didn't tried that much yet.

Most of the DLLs are also obsolete depending on your Windows version. You can try to delete some of them. Though even if it works for you then, it might not work for other people. That is why we just included all of them - so it works for everyone.

Btw., I already made it about 50MB smaller than it was earlier by converting all sound files from wav to ogg.

btw i had idea, since if someone is using skin that you dont have youll see it as a default, maybe an option to download the missing skin :)

it saves 10mb more :P

I already pitched an idea about putting a filebase in game. but that would just make the file bigger which doesn't help with this topic

Their should be a link on start up while OLX loads.
Like on top of the loading bar it should say:

Minimalistic Version 0.1
To download skins, levels, and Mods go to [link]
