;)Ok, I had this great idea to make installation easier.
Before putting LJP on my phone, I created an LJP ready-to-install folder. The folder had the .PRC file, and an LJP file, ready to copy and paste into programs as one whole file, except for the .PRC, which would go into the launcher, obviously. The LJP file had the .zem programs, and files for the systems/roms/saves, except for the .zem's of un-working systems, or unpopular systems. TG16, NeoGeo, etc were unused. The roms were alread in the folders. To install, I simply copied the .PRC to the launcher, and the LJP folder to programs.
I figured, If I release it with everything ready to copy-and-paste, with a few public-domain roms, and unuseable/seldom used systems already eliminated, it would be so easy to install, and stop questions like what I asked and other people have asked. I can even keep a third folder "ZEM'S" that would have all the removed systems, like TG16 and NeoGeo pocket, for anyone who would like the modules later. This would mean there is no checking systems to see what works well enough and is fun enough to keep, no creating folders for each system, a set of ROMS already included, an easy-to-copy LJP folder, the PRC seperate from that folder, and if I'm really feeling nice, a readme.
So, is releasing a ready-to-install version of LJP a good idea, or no? If people like it, it will be on rapidshare within a few days.
