FileForums - Best Compression Methods for 'Specific' Games. Q&A

I guess it's the same as in PREY, so the answer should be no ;)

Edit: Like I said. I did a quick test. Patch file is after 5 minutes over 500mb in size, so most likely the patch files should have the same size as input file.

is that posible to patch tiger files with xdelta after unpacking?

In the Fitgirl Setup installer resources of the game, there is a file that caught my attention called tiger.exe. I imagine it must be the file that encrypt *.tiger files again after unpacking, but idk how to use it.

yes, xdelta can't check the input file because of the encryption.

What would be the method to compress MudRunner? I can't get a good ratio due to the *.dds files and MSC is not working(on *.dds files) or getting freezed.
I don't know any other tool to compress *.dds files so help me out

Imho its "optimized" by default.You dont have to tweak it. But u can play with the MC switch AFAIK.
Thats more than enough.

What version is this based off? It cannot be a most recent version for sure.

Maybe ripped off mp stuff (the game doesn't work without them if I remember well).

Optimal settings - -mtt1 -dtb1 -mc1023 -d128m -mt<number_of_your_physical_core> (for example -mt4). Logical threads not supported by lolz
