I show that in the video, clicking on the header and bringing the changes to the top.

I've done some "fake" mods, with text files with different naming conventions, and I cannot get it to fail. Of course, my experiments have only been with maybe 1k of data, not 3+gig... One thing I'd like to see is a copy-able list, where I can select filenames in the list, and copy them to the clipboard for use elsewhere. As an aside, here's 3 lines from a snapshot, and it looks like CRC is used to check the files against each other:

E:\Ubisoft\FotRS Ultimate\um.dll 8a984e947532dfd9bf3c2ae31e5af5a6
E:\Ubisoft\FotRS Ultimate\Utils.dll b9fd268e57834298c2e17809d0ee4997
E:\Ubisoft\FotRS Ultimate\zlib1.dll 80e41408f6d641dc1c0f5353a0cc8125

I wonder if that is what gets implicated in this?... who recognizes how big of a CRC is used here? 8-bit? 16?? It checks for flipped bits in the files for the compare. Comparing one bit in some big files is way less than comparing a human sneeze to their lifetime...

I also would also like to again thank Jaesen for his app, and the spirit with which it was made and distributed.
That's right. This is not a gripe session or a JSGME sucks session. We're seriously asking this program to do things that are pretty extraordinary and seeking to understand why we're getting effects we see.

JSGME's snapshot and compare functions appear flawless, and they make any errors quickly correctable. This is the mose reassuring takeaway from experiments so far.

I'm going to try using Large Address Aware on JSGME itself and see if we're dealing with memory overflow problems.
