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

Thanks for the info.
Don't understand about "memory_for_models"?
You used '"[' and "]", have the same meaning as parentheses for the calculation?
It depends on what parameters?

In these presets below what would the calculation be, give me an example so I can understand.

Code:

LOLZ_FAST   = lolz:d32m:mtt1:mt<thread>:fba4096:mc2;

LOLZ_NORMAL = lolz:d64m:mtt1:mt<thread>:mc1023;

LOLZ_HIGH   = lolz:dtb1:d128m:mtt1:mt<thread>:mc1023;

LOLZ_ULTRA  = lolz:dtb1:d256m:mtt1:mt<thread>:mc1023

Thread is detected by DSG.
Consider as an example on a 24 thead cpu (I think lolz trunc to 16).

-----------------
This calculation is correct (This without adding the use "memory_for_models" which I didn't understand)?
To CPU 5900x (24 threads) lolz trunc to 16 threads
lolz default mtb is 32m

Code:

lolz:dtb1:d256m:mtt1:mt16:mc1023;

calc: (256m*11 + (32m*2) + (?)) * 16
(2816m + 64m + ?) * 16
2880m * 16 = 46080m

Yes, priority of math operations)

Yep, but the block size will be - 256 mb.

Quotes translated with Google Translate.

Quote:

-mtb [2..512] - sets the block size in MB. When -mt1 -mtt0 also plays a role, but minimal. And more does not mean better. Usually, for -mtt0, the optimal value is about 32-64MB, so the size of the dictionary should be more than 2 times larger. For mtt1 mode, the dictionary size must be no more than the block size;

Quote:

lolz test19g
- in the -mtt1 mode, when compressing, the block and dictionary sizes are aligned with each other according to the larger of them;

I don’t remember the required memory for the models. But this is a trifle

Thank you very much Edison007.

PS: I noticed that if you compress as small as 300MB the value set for dictionary in console output during compression is smaller than if you compress as much as 30GB. Dictionary appears to be input size dependent.

I will run some tests and see the results.
Thanks!

Another quote from changelog:

Quote:

lolz test19c
- added reduction of the dictionary and the block to an acceptable size if the input file is smaller than the sizes of these parameters;

MSC Questions: Use frog=9 switches equal to --bestnew or any OFR switches??

Example: chimes.wav file in 216 364 byte

MSC with frog=9 switches: 36 455 byte (internally from ARC archive: 36 233 byte)
Directly packing OFR with use --maximumcompression switches: 35 608 byte

What about *.shapes from Farming Sim 2022? Encrypt files?

Hi, my friends)
What about decrypt/decompress *.FF from CoD BO 2?)
