Download of updates as packs

Post by dma »

Hi,

Could you, by any chance, offer each VGM updates (listed in the "updates" topic) as direct download packs?
This would be really great for us downloaders to keep our collection up to date. Instead of having to download each new tune, when an update is released after a complete pack tag.

Many thanks in advance.
And thanks again for the most faithful and universal music emulation around.

He means instead of every pack being a HUGE zip each successive pack simply be a zip of the difference between now and last. "Update pack" is MAME terminology for such.

Why not have it be an option, a-la the HVSC does for SIDs? I myself love the all-in-one packs, but the guy did bring up a popular MAME-used method with the update packs.
Until next post...
