Question About Drmd

[SiIV]

I was wondering if DRMDx could run files from the zip or do you have to extract them to smd?

Maybe you should read the included readme file. That's what I always do before I start asking questions.

From the readme:
"DrMD supports BIN and SMD Genesis rom formats
DrMD also supports the above formats while stored in compressed ZIP files.
*NOTE*
DrMD only has limited zip file support. It does not support more
than one genesis rom stored in a zip. DrMD will only load the first
file it finds stored in the zip file. "

thanks for the fast reply

cool so i can zip up all my games and DrMD will load them from the zip into memory?

how much compression can be used on the zip? what about .rar?

 

[wyefye]

yes, and no.

you can only have one rom per zip for it to work - anything more, and it will only read the first file in that zip.

i dont care that you can only use 1 file in a zip, what does that matter? it still takes my 55.2MB megadrive ROM collection down to 31MB on normal compression.
