Windows Vista AIO Update Pack???

Hello,
I'm wondering if there's an all-in-one update pack for Windows Vista (SP1 + SP2 + Platform Update + Supplement Update? + Frameworks + DirectX)

If not, I was thinking maybe I could compile one myself (assuming the files are re-distributable). In theory, would it be difficult to simply compress the files into a smaller size, then find some program that will give an option list like PROBLEMCHYLD's unofficial Windows 98SE service pack, and have it automatically install from there? Windows Vista's lack of popularity makes it harder to find patches...

Use WSUS Offline 9.25 to download all Vista patches, along with the applicable runtimes for VC++, .NET Framework and DirectX. You can even include MSE (which would work if tricked into thinking it's on W7, 99.9% sure) and Windows Defender definitions.

I haven't done much research on either Vista or WSUS, but it does give you the option of creating an ISO or a folder on a USB drive with the updates. Or you can just copy the "client" folder to the Vista machine and run UpdateInstaller.exe.

*note: the update files for x64 are ~3.6 GB uncompressed.
