If you are using XP have a look here:

It's about the fifth item on the list. Please do....I can't tell whether the file was successfully uploaded or not. And gimme some feedback.

If you are using any other OS....grab Col Klinks little exe called BinarizeIT. That will solve your problem.  ;D

Put the BinarizeIT.exe in the same folder as the binarize program.

Then run the BinarizeIT.exe.

BinarizeIT was conceived and programmed entirely on an XP machine and has worked flawlessly since the day it was created on my computer.

However it does depend upon having the correct VB 6.0 Runtime files to work. These can be d/l from Microsoft.
Check out the  download for BinarizeIT at http://www.dc3d.co.nz/ofpdownloads.htm.

No problem there , Leone.
I'm working on another version which will allow binarize to addon compiling in one button click.

[wired]

im trying to get an object of mine into wrptool... i get the error of it not being found. Also binarize isn't making an opt folder  :-\

[Planck]

Open the bin.bat file that is in the Binarize folder.

Use Notepad to open it, then post here what is says.

hope this helps:

@echo off
@if "%1"=="" (
   echo Usage: bin ksign
   goto :EndOfFile
)
@rem Model file optimization
rem Cemove current content
rd /s /q Opt\%1

rem Create target directory
mkdir Opt\%1

rem Perform binarization
binarize -textures=Opt -exclude=Opt\exclude.lst %1 Opt\%1

rem Copy all except model and textures
xcopy %1 Opt\%1 /exclude:exclude.txt

rem Note: textures referenced from other addons or pbo files
rem can be found in corresponding Opt subdirectories (like Opt/Data)

:EndOfFile
