zip file with a 1000 games

[l@z]

am i able to upload a huge zip file full of games to my forum and then delete all the ones i dont want?

[Shazz]

I don't think you can do that..

[peterska2]

it will depend on the structure of the zip. if the zip contains individual zips for the games, then no. I'd be a bit cautious about doing it anyway as it will probably time out as it will take a long time to process.

[l@z]

ok so i should sort them out in ziped files of about 20 games you reckon?

then just pick out the ones i want.

[peterska2]

I really wouldn't touch it with a bargepole unless you are confident enought to deal with the errors that will probably occur from attempting it.

[l@z]

so you would just reckamend 1 file of say 10 games then?
this way i should not get any errors?

[peterska2]

If it isn't a file of one game, then leave it alone.

[l@z]

so i have to install the games 1 by 1?

[peterska2]

You can bulk install by uploading more than one zip or tar at once, but dont use zips or tars containing more than one game.

I've done installs of 500+ games before now with just uploading all the zips and tars and then using the mass install function after that.
