 _gerp | we can't redistribute the base build of am2r, for legal reasons | 02:22:13 |
 Spooky Detective Lucario | You have to find it on your own. | 02:22:16 |
| brosph | yes i understand | 02:22:21 |
| brosph | ty | 02:22:28 |
| _gerp | community updates exist on the basis that we don't redistribute the files, meaning the files that nintendo doesn't want, aren't included in this | 02:22:38 |

 karmacolorcat | is there an xdelta file of AM2R? Why? | 03:38:34 |
| _gerp | no clue? | 03:38:44 |
| _gerp | i just know that it ain't exclusive to DS stuff, i've used it on gba, snes, and yes, even psp | 03:39:37 |
| karmacolorcat | never heard of it before | 03:40:41 |
| karmacolorcat | normally I've seen ips files for patches | 03:40:57 |

 yes.no.maybe.i_dont_know | This looks like a doohickey | 05:02:25 |
 Chief Idiocy Officer | xdelta is actually the format we use for our patches, yes! | 05:27:39 |
| Chief Idiocy Officer | in relation to the older differential patch formats it has better compression, handles larger file sizes, and handles data that simply moved locations better | 05:28:14 |
| karmacolorcat | interesting 🤔 | 05:52:35 |
| karmacolorcat | speaking of compressing data | 05:53:20 |
| _gerp | i haven't delved much into romhacking, but it felt like quite a while since i used lunarips | 05:53:24 |
| karmacolorcat | is there any known way to make the music files smaller? | 05:53:42 |
| karmacolorcat | I noticed in a lot of games that the music files are usually the ones making games larger in size | 05:54:12 |
| _gerp | besides actually reducing quality and taking out noise and such, i don't think there's much | 05:54:27 |
| karmacolorcat | AM2R doesnt seem to be an exception | 05:54:29 |
| _gerp | music tracks are just heavy, that's why games used to "compose" them on the fly with samples and built-in systems | 05:55:02 |
| _gerp | even stuff up to the gamecube did so | 05:56:49 |
| Chief Idiocy Officer | think of audio as an analogue to video | 06:01:08 |
