Loading files is too slow

Description

The loading of files in the WinForms UI is triggered by opening the "Change Game System" dialog, but this can take a while to open. This is seemingly because file loading is taking a while.

The obvious reason would be because of the API and file checking, but the problem doesn't seem to occur in the GTK# interface. May end up being related to running Windows in a VM, but needs investigating.

Looks like it might be because of exceptions caused trying to open non-Zip files as Zips. We might have to abandon the "smart" file loading and just fall back to Windows-esque dumb "does the file extension match" checking.

  • milestone changed from WarFoundry 0.1 to WarFoundry 0.2

Loading seems quick again. Dropping back a milestone as it isn't a priority until people start putting junk in the "data" folder.
