Description
BizHawk start cd system loading ISO files that are big in size for some games.
Is possible convert games cds in compression format (MDS or ISZ) where the user mount the game in an virtual drive (Alcohol or others drive emulators).
PCSX2 and others emulators support load games using drives or virtual drives.
Games will has less size and load more fast and even compressed MDS and ISZ format use few resources.
Thanks for read my post.
