Following Stu's lead I deleted the appropriate files (including the logs inside news\txt\leagues ) and used WInRar to zip the league.
Using scouts, which really pumps that DAT file up, and also 2 week's worth of HTML box scores, my league zip is around 17 megs. Your initial zip might be bigger when you include team images, btw. Again, the scout.dat file is why it's as large as it is. |

My last 6.5 file was around 5 or 6 megs, but not fully stripped. |

I compressed all of the .dat files of my test league using powerarchiver, winrar and Windows XP's built in .ZIP function. Here are the sizes Before compression 63,235kb <--- .gz 12,686k .zip 12,512k .rar 10,010k This does not include any of the non .dat files but for league files it appears that .rar is the best compression unless there is a way to compress even more that I am not aware of. BTW before everybody freaks out this is the Major Leagues with every bell and whistle turned on. Last edited by SC_Dawg; 06-09-2006 at 10:32 PM. |

After five years, I have to say that these files get big - in a 10-league universe (170 teams), after five seasons, they are 7.3mb and 4mb respectively, zipped up.

Can't Winzip be configure to only put files with today's date in the zip file? If so, that would work for everything after the initial league file.

Now who do we talk to about having the game do this internally?

However, my online test league is so absolutely FUBARed at this point in time that there's no going back. I have to start over. This game is truly maddening. Truly.
