I still get a project with ~140MB in size even though it should be around 5MB max. I still get loads and loads of unused files. I use no plugins. What am I doing wrong?

If a file is referenced anywhere in the project the stripper won't remove them.

Yeah but even a new project is ~140MB in size. Maybe they should add the option to simply create an empty project instead then? I suppose that the default code refers to certain SFX and certain battle backgrounds perhaps.

I see no use to the stripper if projects are a minimum of 140MB in size. I could strip some SFX away and such in the system settings perhaps but it would still require some manual work to get rid of the battle backgrounds and such.
