Smaller Dolphin Versions

[darkshadw]

Sorry for bad english .

Hi guys :p,

I am trying to make dolphin smaller by shrinking the .exe's and .dll's. This worked for some versions already i tried it on .
For example: I started with build 3400. When i downloaded the file and extracted it to a new folder it was like 28MB, but on the end it was like 10MB.
I just wanna say that I wanna to do this with alot of versions and upload them on skydrive here: Link.
If this is against the rules (i don't think so) but if it is, please say it and u can remove this thread.

Thx.
And no credits for me :p I don't know who made this builds, but thx .
Ooh and thx to Orlean for the watchdog in the newest revs .

"I hope it's in the right section..."

Does this increase performance or just decrease file size?

You mean removing shared libraries and stuff and making the installations incremental?

[darkshadw]

Asylum: Just the size.
CacoFFF: Can u explain it more clearly, im not english heheh

I have about 20 Dolphin revisions right now taking up 6.7 GB, too lazy to clean up the mess. Huge hard drives FTW

I just copy the user folder into each new Dolphin revision from my last one, so have all my saves and savestates in all of them. Good with some backup but I could probably delete most of it

I just copy and replace all files except for SDL.dll and the user folder from the my newest binary build folder. If I need an older build for some reason(not sure why), I can just tell TurtoiseSVN to grab that specific build and re-compile it from that.
