Reading large zip files

Post by Falcon »

When using a PS2 Dat file with Romcenter, it fails to recognize large zip files. It recognizes files that are 1.5gb in a zip, but anything larger than that is shown as a Red Symbol (File is not working). Is there any way to bypass this while keeping the iso in a zip file, or will I have to wait until Romcenter is able to read large zipped iso files?

And yes, Romcenter does recognize the .iso files over 2gb WITHOUT being in a zip, but that just takes up too much space...

I updated rc3 beta 2 (not yet released) to handle large files. Unfortunatly, the infozip dll I used can't handle files larger than 2GB (see here)

A new version of these dll should be released soon with big files support.
