It would annoy everyone that way, all Windows users don't care about Linux binaries, and all Linux users don't care about Windows binaries. Combining everything means everyone would have to download ~200-250 MB only to discard half of it really :/

elyashivhazan commented 1 week ago

could it be add just as an option? just to mash it all together for one more file on release page? or something else, to combine the gen_config script with the release because its also kind of minatory like gen interfaces

Yeah I totally agree with that, I'm just not that interested as before, the repo will be archived anyway as mentioned in the front readme

What's going on? Why did you suddenly lose interest? If you don't want to develop it anymore at least keep it archived, don't delete it because this fork is extremely useful and is the only steam emulator that works for some games that I play.
