This looks like the spot to ask this question.

Is there a program that can find all the unused / orphaned Textures in a route? RR can find textures used by a shape one at a time. But what I want is to find those not used.Something to find the textures and compare the 'found' list to the total list of textures.

If not, is there a not too tedious technique?

In Windows Explorer you can display Date_Accessed in any directory. Set that to display then run the whole length of the route. Afterwards sort the file listing by that attribute. Any file not accessed on the same date is probably not used so cut and paste those elsewhere. Next run route riter and have it tell you if anything needed is missing.

Thax Dave,
That sounds simple enough for even me to do.http://www.elvastower.com/forums/public/style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif

Hi Michael,

A simple way to search ... (also try it :) ). But do not forget a night ride or a winter / snow ride. And finally also look at "missing files" in the log-file.

Hi Roger,
Thank you for that,
Yes, The other folders would need the unused files pulled too. I am thinking that once the files from the main TEXTURES folder have been separated, I could use the removed files as a list the find and remove the night/winter files. If the unused files are trees then all the seasonal folders would be checked too.

Hi Folks,

I do it with UNIX Shell scripts - pretty handy... I'm not a real programmer - just stayed in a Holiday Inn Express last night... I open all the world tiles to get a definitive list of textures used...

Scott, that looks like coding skill to me. :sign_rockon:

What shell do you use to run that script in windows?

[scottb613]

Hi Dave,

LOL - thanks - a real programmer would probably laugh and my clumsy effort...

While I can barely copy a file in a “bat” file - I’m much more comfortable and at home with UNIX...

I make models in Flight Simulator and they require a bunch of tedious text file edits after export - so I started writing scripts for that...

I came across this open source UNIX emulator called “Cygwin” - greatest thing since sliced bread in my humble opinion... It’s actually a PC program that just creates an imersive UNIX like environment for the user... They have just about every UNIX package you could think of available (C, Python, Perl, Awk/Nawk/Gawk) for it and it’s been around for many years... For home use it’s actually better than having a UNIX system - as I have access to both my UNIX environment and my PC’s file system/executables...

Here’s the link if interested (it’s free):

If you can do that kind of shell work, you should be able to figure out Powershell in Windows! Note also that Win10 Pro and up have a full BASH shell available in Linux mode - but it apparently can't access all Windows controls and files.

Hi Mike,

Hah - yeah - but the slashes go the WRONG way !!!
:rolleyes:

I've poked around a bit and I've never come across programs on windows similar to "awk" in UNIX - since I use Cygwin a great deal to process text files - awk makes it so easy - it's a powerful programming language unto itself... I've got decades of experience with UNIX - so it's just easier to work with what I know...

Scott
