Question about Uploading a File for online Use

ozziethesaint · 11-18-2005, 03:33 PM

I am curious to get some help here, I am not quite sure what files are essential to leave in the zip file I will be uploading. but yet keep it as small as I possibly can. thanks

Once you have the entire .lg folder in the zip file, open it back up and sort by date.

If you only keep the files dated the day of the sim, you'll have the smallest file possible everytime.

Just put out a 'full' file at the start of the season and use the above method for every other sim after that.

I usually have the full file as the first 'ammy draft' file, then just use the updated file from that point on.

Hope this helps.

Yes it does, thanks. So far the file size when zipped wasn't out of control, now it's getting very very large
