WHDLoad Pack Downloader troubles
Hi,
I wonder why the old system of WHDLoad Packs and Updates has been changed. Since I do not have the old files I already downloaded on my HDD anymore (at least not packed the way the quirky downloader wants them), I would be forced to download everything again and at an inacceptable slow speed. So I am stuck with v2.6 or is there any other way to get just the files I need? |

I wrote in the post why I removed the old packs: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=68704
Yes, you are forced to download the whole thing again, but do it now before new years eve as I've temporarily upped the anonymous FTP account from 50kb/sec to 500kb/sec =) Or you could just download the games you want to update manually. Or even use a ROM manager such as ClrMAMEPro |

I just use Retroplay's Dat files and update at the beginning over every month, it removes older versions and tells you what new versions you need to download!

Well, that changes a lot. I haven't found the WHDLoad files on the server and always thought that the Pack Downloader is the only possibility to get access to them. Never looked up the Retroplay folder...
![]() This is even better than the old update system; I can just add those files that I need manually. ![]() |
