SMC ROM Compressor

Hi people,
whats the best file compressor out there for SMC files (SNES ROM) ?

Zip ? RAR ? 7z ? JMA ?

the thing is.. I got a pack (7z file type) with a friend, with more than 100 roms, but when I open the file on WinRAR, it shows that some file are on 0 size when packed (check the attach image).

I know that ZSNES doesn't support 7z files, so I tryed the others one... but no sucess on the same size.... (check the attach image). I compressed with RAR, ZIP and it's all bigger than the 7z one.

Compressed with JMA too (final size: 506 KB [518.929 bytes])

Is something wrong ?

I'm trying to put all in separated files, so I can play right from a DVD without uncompressing the 7z.

thanks

JMA.

7-Zip compressed merged romsets display all but one file as 0 bytes. That's normal.

I'm converting right now from the SMC.
