Another Suggestion

Well, a lot off games are very big, 128 or 200 something.
Maybe we can make a section were you can upload trimmed versions of it?
Cause when I tried to trim a game, it only was 5 mb smaller, so that didn't work.....
Or a section with all the pre-patched versions of a game, for people who really can't patch (Like me, it really didn't work when I tried to patch a game)Just thinking :P

Well, if it's a big game, and it has a lot of junk data in it, it will compress very small in winrar/7zip.
(ie - WarioWare DIY = 128mbs uncompressed/16.5mbs trimmed still gonna be 7mbs to download (compressed).)So, trimming the roms won't make much of a difference.
It will be the same size as the untrimmed rom.
Plus flashcarts like untrimmed roms better, but trimming only saves space when the files are uncompressed.

Or maybe a section where people can upload PC games that they legally bought?

Then it is still illegal sharing them :P
For example, I can upload all parts of the Sims 2 series if I want.BTW, the "Share" section is where you can share all your files.

That is considered warez and won't be hosted on RomU's mainsite or the forum.You can get a warning/ban if you post that. o-O
(That's why I try not to break the rules.)

Yeah, I know, but the most of it are ds games. It would be handy though for pc games... Still weird

I also know, but maybe it was a little more legal (Or not)

It's still illegal, but riskier than some other games.I have seen many threads that are locked because someone posted warez. (ie - computer games) :PI'm sure Seph or Loony will confirm that the site doesn't host PC games.

Just upload your stuff to a file sharing site such as MediaFire, and post a topic in the correct section.

[quote author=Seph]
- No posting of Warez/Serials/Cracks/keygens, or links to sites with said content. Do NOT ask for such things either. Repeated violations of this rule will lead to a permanent ban.

I mean the good things, what did you think?

I think that posting computer games is against the rules.DOS Box games are considered warez.
So are others. :PI just know on so many sites that they don't allow PC games to be posted.

Patched-version secton then? When I tried it, I had 4 users to help me, but I still couldn't do it myself....

It's simple.Also, most of the AP threads contain links to pre-patched versions.

No, you think it's simple, I don't .....

Rudolph's patch: Drag 'n Drop the ROM on the EXE
Other patches: Rename the ROM to a specific name and run the BAT.

Pst.

Spoiler

PM for tech help.This is a suggestion thread.

The roms are ok to upload as I have done before many a-times before. :)

Patched versions might be an idea for the future.

I know a site where you can get a trimmer for r4 users.
