I'm wondering if anybody has the historical variants of ProFrager's lolz compressors that they'd be willing to share. It isn't difficult to find versions
v22c4b (sometimes referred to as magic2) and
v21a7 (sometimes referred to as lollypop2), but the older or inbetween versions were seemingly only passed around in private or lost threads.
From what I've gathered there exists:
lolz (2016, bannerless in-proc)
lolzi (2017-03)
lolzx "lolz test17g" (2017-06)
lolly "v19j" (2017-09)
lollypop "v20d3" (2017-10)
lollypop2 "v21a7" (2018-01) (there exists an a5 and a6 variant, but a7 is the final working variant of this generation)
magic/magicl "v22b8o" (2018-07)
magic2/magic2l "v22c4b" (2018-12) (exists a 22c4 but the b variant is the final)
It isn't difficult to find the decompressors, but I am interested in the compressors as historical artifacts. I understand that these might have been shared in confidence, but some of these are nearly 10 years old and it would be shame for them never to surface.
I understand if this goes unanswered, but I felt it was worth asking regardless.
