Added option to exclude patches from download #26

Closed Top-Ranger closed 3 years ago

Top-Ranger commented 7 years ago

This adds an option to the download command to skip patch files.

This is useful if you only want to store the latest version of the game files on your disk and therefore have no need for the patch files.

Is it possible to include this functionality in the -update command as well? As your code stands, it doesn't update the local manifest, so a -verify command will erroneously indicate that your archive is vastly incomplete.

Hey, I'm sorry that I won't add your proposed feature in the near future (if ever). I have neither used the script nor worked on it for a long time and thus am at the moment not suited to tackle this issue any more.

It's OK. I appreciate you getting back to me! After having another think about it, I'm not even sure it's possible; the manifest doesn't store patches, so the -update command is the wrong place for this function anyway. It would have to be grafted onto -verify. Thanks again!

ETA: Wait, no. The manifest does look like it tracks individual files. Whoops.
