this lzma2 used 7zip commands

[External compressor:lzma2]
header = 0
packcmd = 7z a -txz -an -mcrc=0 -m0=lzma2{:option} -mmt3 -si -so <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = 7z x -txz -an -mmt3 -si -so <stdin> <stdout>

------note
3 methods on most games i repack..
because i use 3 data files to seperate content.
it helps avoid crc check errors.
and target specific files..
besides i suck at making masks..lol
