I wonder how many users have their sets in 7-zip format.
-- MAME has supported 7z format since 0.146 -- The "most popular" site for some people, files are currently in ZIP format -- Quick Google search found more than a few places that offer files in .7z format, including a very big site
i.e. ... individual users aren't converting their files from ZIP to 7z... there are simply sites that are actively maintaining the alternate archive format... not as big... but it's out there.
And... thanks for keeping this FE going... been what... 24 years now?
RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
