Description

Describe Your Suggestion

I've noticed that there's no error dialog to indicate that a VPK or GMA failed to save due to either being set to read only or is currently open in-game or in Hammer. May cause confusion/instances where work/progress gets lost. If you will consider implementing this make sure to account for multi-chunk VPK's as the _dir could be written to others may not.
I've also noticed a Windhawk mod DWM Unextend Frames causes this tool to freeze and only render when minimized and un-minimized unless excluded. This seems to also happen with Blender and other apps like pazer for tf2. Any reason why DWM is so important to render this tool? And if possible allow it to render without DWM?
