Patch really really big

Post by nanashi16 »

I am trying to make a patch for my install I just changed two files and the patch is coming out as big or BIGGER then the orginal install.

Any ideas as to what would make it do that?

I guess this is theoretically possible :D

But I'm not sure what actually caused this in your given case. Make sure any runtimes are excluded (they normally automatically are by the Compiler Variable statements). Make sure you aren't including full file patches (Project Options). Make sure you don't have too many old patch referneces (that might be yet another cause).
