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

[K4miKaZe]

Hi, here is a new method for this game, this time with better installation time and better ratio (it fits perfect in a bd25 disc). My idea was to not touch this game again in 1-2 weeks but DiCaPrIo gave me an idea yesterday to make it work with ztool.

Big Thanks DiCaPrIo, the c256m setting worked !!!

Title:           Dishonored 2
Version:         v1.77.5.0 (incl. all dlcs)

PC:              4 Cores 3.9GHz (up to 4.3GHz) + 8GB Ram + SSD

Ripped Files:    All foreign languages

Original Size:   53.6 GB
Compressed Size: 22.5 GB

Mask Method:     no compression on *.pck files
                 binkpack on *.bk2 files
                 pzlib:max:c256m+srep:m3f+lolz:d128:mc1023 on rest of files
                
Compress Time:   16 hours 15 minutes (58538.66 sec)
Install Time:    13 minutes

CRC Checked:     Yes

Note:
Important to set up c256m on ztool or it will not work, the compression time is
slow because it takes over 9 hours only with ztool.

Also removing the credits.bik will give you 700mb better output if you wish.

I did another little test with xtool setting up same chunksize and using latest zlib version from official page. Seems the ratio is a little bit better but is also much more faster. Have to try it with the full game, maybe in 1 week or 2.

@JustFun, if you wish you can delete my previous method or leave it but this is almost better except for the compression time.
