For small updates like 6.4b to 6.4c, could SkiJunkie make just the executable available, as well as the full patch, please?
It isn't a problem to me, but it would cut the time for dial-up users, as well as reduce the traffic on the various download sites. |

The problem with that is having to maintain multiple sets of patches and people just starting out having to apply all the right patches to make it work. The way it is set up now all you ever need is the latest full point release and the current patch. Many patches include stuff like new icons, fields, ect, so if you were a new player you could have to download all sorts of subpatches to make everything work right if it was all broken up. |

Fair enough. I was hoping it could be provided in addition to the existing patch system, but true, it does prevent problems with new users and those less computer-savvy. |
