Smaller Dolphin Versions - darkshadw - 07-30-2009
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?
RE: Smaller Dolphin Versions - CacoFFF - 07-30-2009
You mean removing shared libraries and stuff and making the installations incremental?
RE: Smaller Dolphin Versions - darkshadw - 07-30-2009
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
RE: Smaller Dolphin Versions - Unknownforce - 08-05-2009
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.
