Introduction

So yeah...
I got bored and decided to create a resource pack. I therefore grabbed the 1.18.1 jar file from the "version" folder and extracted the "assets" folder. I did my thing, edited the files and then came to the part, where I had to wrap everything up, pack it into a need Zip-Archive and send it to my friends. Well, that didn't work out quite how I wanted. The archiving part took minutes and the uploading parts seemingly hours. Why? Because it had to archive all the files that were ever in the "assets" folder of the original jar file.

How do we solve this problem?

So what I did, as I am a Java developer, I took out my IDE (a developement platform) and started programming a simple program that should compare all files inside my resource pack to the extracted "assets" folder and delete those, that weren't changed or added on top.
After half an hour of researching, programming, testing and fixing bugs, this is what I got: An incredible useful tool
To make this whole thing useful for all kinds of stuff, I made the jar configurable in terms of directories etc. So now you only have to fill in the blank spaces in '"Start.bat" and everything should be perfectly fine!

Ending words

So that is basically it! The program is linked, you can download it, if problems occure, the program should help you or you can contact me...
Now: Have a nice day, thanks for reading this and... Good luck with the tool!
