Feature request for 7z support please #63

So ive been under the mistaken impression (not really sure what i was thinking) that the newer cores were the dated ones.

This was reinforced by the fact that desmume2015 worked, while desmume did not.

Ive finally tracked this down to the fact that my games were compressed w/ 7z.

Unsure how 2015 variant ended up supporting 7z, and the newer one did not - but alas :)

Either way, every single rom - for every single non disc system i have is compressed as 7z so it would be excellent if support could be added.

not sure how much time, or how difficult it is - but i'd imagine its a worthwhile addition considering how popular 7z is.

Thanks for your time regardless!

so I tested zip after another individual mentioned zip support works. No good there either. failed to load content. Meanwhile desmume2015 still fine.

it will only load if its uncompressed. Any ideas? I assume this means 7z support is actually in too, and my problem lay elsewhere. Just no idea where.

fixed. somehow, for some reason - clearing my temp folder resolved it. Not sure if theres some kinda arbitrary file count limit, or size limit, or it was some rogue old file causing ruckus. /shrug
