SHP Builder still downloads all the (imo useless) color schemes and palette files.

When updating it should download only new or changed files. It can take up to several minutes to download all the tiny scheme and palette files.

An option to download the EXE only would be very useful.


There are still the strange hexadecimal palettes in the User folder present and constantly downloaded again.


Right now i have to have 2 SHP Builder folder. One which has all the useless stuff removed and is for working.
Another one for the updating/downloading which can clutter up the palette and scheme folders.

This change would require some heavy edition at the code of the program and at some of the server code as well. My main priority right now is my doctorade thesis. So, I won't work on it now. But I do plan to eventually improve the installer to split core files from PalPack, Apollo Custom Schemes, custom palettes, etc...
