          Try a copy test file...
          Then let us know what is 'lost', if anything...
          If you explain what V-ray data gets purged which you'd like to keep, then I could probably add a setting like ZipUp.vray=true [default would be ' false'] - so it would then NOT purge certain things that V-ray needs?
          Is it V-ray-materials ?
          You can choose to NOT keep the purged Model, and revert to the bloated one after the ZIP is made.
          Even a subsequent Undo soon after the SKP>>ZIP was made will undo the Model's purging if you accidentally say Yes to keeping the purged state !
          BUT remember that the whole ideas is to purge the SKP that gets ZIPped so the recipient gets the trimmest possible file... What happens to the original Model is up to you...

            Here is v1.1 http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=ZipUp
            It is updated to work down to v8, although it works best in >=v2014...

              Quick question, do you see the world in code?

                    Like Solo, I don't have much need of auto .zips, but is there any way that ZipUp could also save an image/thumbnail of the skp?

                    You have undoubtedly heard of the trouble us windows people are having with seeing skp thumbs in explorer. This is becoming a serious pita for me.

                    Within the magic of this plugin, would it be possible to be able to see thumbs?(thumbs of actual images). It would be a huge help. If I had the option, I would choose an image 'save' of 600x 400px in jpeg. If the image also had a link to the skp, I would probly wet myself.

                    I know I'm pushing it here... but what about an option to save, purge, etc. and generate image/thumb etc, without zipping, but to a new folder?

                        I wanted to ask if the plugin can save the skp in the zip in an older version. But I looked in the help in the pluginstore and there it is πŸ˜‰

                        Maybe you should add this info to the first post here too?

                        Thanks again for this helpful plugin!

                              Version v1.4 has just be released.
                              http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=ZipUp
                              It has improved comparisons for possible versions etc when using ZipUp.skpver= [which is only available in >=v2014] and better error reporting of incorrect input - e.g. when used in <v2014, or with an unsupported version, like 2 or 2012...
