View Full Version : Compressor Files ...... OK
..............................
Msc : compresses media streams IN FILES. (WAV,RAW audio,MP3)
SREP: makes full length deduplication. In short:it makes files smaller,improves compression ratio,increases decompression speed.
XTOOL : alternate for precomp. Very fast.
RZ : Compressor,like LZMA,LOLZ,etc. Deduplicates and compresses. Has a few optimizations. (EXE,some media)
Btw u have to experience with them....

Use MSC:
- For wav audio (msc:wav=1:tak=9)
- For Bitmap Files (msc:bmp=1:bmf=9)
- For Raw audio / images (msc:raw=1:bmf=9:tak=9)
Do not use MSC on dds images since it gets stuck and crashes, but still sends an Errorlevel 0 so FreeArc continues and you end up with a broken archive at the end.
Use MPZ for MP3 audio (even on files that contain MP3 audio since MPZ can do streams too).
Thank you guys
I want to know the other files ...
Example ..
Nzip
Ztool
Pzlib
Pzlib3
Oggre
Oodle
OodleMT
Etc.
too ...What files can compress games large size
Nzip : archiver ,very-very slow comp/decomp.
Ztool : predecessor of xtool
Pzlib : ...... of Ztool
OGGRE : OGG file compressor.
Oodle: collection of RAD's compression algos
OodleMT : multi-threaded compressor for Oodle codecs.
How can I know out of the games files needs compression Nzip or Pzlib etc. ?

There isn't much point of using nano zip now that lolz / rz exists. Even still, lolz is used 90% of the time. RZ is only useful on a small set of file types.
Same goes for pzlib - XTool is much better.
So on a normal file, use srep+lolz (srep used to deduplicate data).
Only use xzlib (XTool - packcmd = xtool:e:precomp:zlib) on files that contain zlib Streams. Not every file will contain such streams, but you can use Razor12911's Game File Scanner to search files for presence of such streams.
Where the Game File Scanner ? link please
and thanks for help me :)
1- what is need file compression for large game one file .bin? , and file compression for small size ? lolz is used 90% of the time. RZ is only useful on a small set of file types.
2- how to update my script .iss to latest version inno setup ? I have a error
