Difference between ZIP and folder?

What's the difference?

Easy To Edit Resource File's .

but I saw one post in which Castillo solved a problem of a resource only changing from ZIP to folder

Maybe It's Some Time's Need To Use Folder .

Well, the difference is, that e.g, you want to write on a file via scripting functions, if you are using a zip, you won't be able to do that.

zip's are easy to transfer.

and normally zip's are smaller, but I don't think that will matter when we are talking about mta scripts.

Much smaller: (map file)

From: 86,1 kB (88.189 bytes)

To: 11,6 kB (11.936 bytes)
