Updating zlib for [RunUO 2.0+]

Compiled by: Kamron
Compiled using: Visual Studio 2010
Version: 1.2.5 (zlib Home Site)

Installation:
Extract the attached file to the RunUO directory, replacing the old files. The runuo core (Server.exe file) will need to be recompiled with a define specified for ZLIB_WINAPI. Here is an example of the default command line to compile RunUO. The command line will work if all core script files are in the "Server" folder of your RunUO directory.

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\csc.exe /unsafe /out:Server.exe /recurse:Server\*.cs /win32icon:Server\runuo.ico /warnaserror+ /d:ZLIB_WINAPI

what exactly does this do that is so great for runuo?
why should we use it over current one?

 

[Kamron]

The newer version has various bug fixes and security improvements as well as performance increases. Everything can be read at zlib Home Site. The version which RunUO uses is 1.2.3 from 2005.

Considering what RunUO uses if for, and the fact that there haven't been any issues, this really isn't needed.

The decompression was not able to be done.


The decompression was not able to be done though it downloaded.

I used WinRAR and it downloaded/decompressed fine. Should I use a different program to compress it?

winrar and zip it.

It solved it.

It was possible to defrost with Lhaplus though the decompression was not able to be done with WINRAR.
Thank you for the answer.

When the extension was changed from ZIP to RAR, it was possible to decompress.

I recompressed and reuploaded the file. Tell me if there is a difference.

It doesn't support it in Windows 2000.

It seems not to be able to read by Windows 2000 when compiling with Visual Studio 2010.
