is there any kind of tool that can scan a game folder and give you a report of file types found?
is there a common method that will be good enough to just throw at most games?
mini compressor has presets for example:
mxc = xprecomp+lolz1/$bitmapz=bmpz/$bink=bink/$void=void/$photo=jpg/$ogg=ogg/$wavz=wvp/$mp3=mpz
any help would be appreciated. i just want a simple way to store my games and save storage space.

wiztree gives you each file types in great detail, i use it myself. there are also plenty of examples in these threads for methods:

its quite easy to learn the best methods for unity or unreal games, for example. i also suggest that you switch to DiskSpan GUI:

i used both mini compressor and DiskSpan, and i can tell you that DiskSpan will be much better once you learn how to use it.
