Feature request - Pack edits #26

Open urbster1 opened 6 years ago

urbster1 commented 6 years ago

Just had this thought - It would be really cool to save settings, so that you could easily load another ROM, load a settings file, and apply all kits, palettes, and fonts at once

Eiyeron commented 6 years ago

Yeah, I was thinking of that earlier, I wonder how I would do the thing.

  1. Making a big file containing all kits/palettes/fotns
  2. Referencing to other files.

So, after a discussion with Defense Mechanism, here's the idea I got: packing edits into a zipfile. In said archive would be a list of palettes/fonts/kits that would be automatically slapped on a ROM and would call it a day.

The only thing that holds me for now to add such operation : I need to finish the rest. Sorry.

Edit : it'd allow metadata files for custom pack storage and all with additional files stored in the archive.

Possible feature I just thought off : quick patching by drag'n'dropping both a pack and a ROM.

urbster1 commented 4 years ago

what if the rom is also included in the zip! just patch everything into the included rom

Eiyeron commented 4 years ago

To keep track of which version the pack is designed for?

urbster1 commented 4 years ago

not necessarily, just that it would require fewer arguments for the user if the rom was also in the zip. so if they get the zip they can add their rom to the zip, open zip with lsdpatch, lsdpatch spits out the patched rom. if no rom is included in the zip, prompt user for the rom first. something like that maybe?
