pretty much you have to take chunks of the game and do tests on them
and find out what they are weakest to compression wise..
some games are weak to pzlib and precomp others they have no effect on
so....
i cannot give one all powerful method that will give ungodly game compression.
to each and every game on the market

Can you share the tool which you are using to compress the game.
I have this tool only and it works fine on games (uncompressed) less then 10 GB.
If game is more than 10 GB it is taking hell lot of time and compress ratio is also not good.

that is a good tool although problem is its limited its best to use a custom compressor as newer compression tools were made long after its release
so you can manually make changes to whats in it and also to what you can use in the script you have

operating the .bat file in the compressor

You can add or decrease the amounts of disks to make.
just check the arc ini and it will tell you the method.
right click and click edit on Advanced_Compressor.
look at the setup setting a file location.. be SURE to number the bin files
say you want it to target desktop and new folder..
"C:\Users\Wolf\Desktop\New folder" it must appear like this..
by default i have it set for 3 data files you can increase,
or decrease just make sure you line everything up,
in the arc ini it has my own personal methods
you can use or change them do NOT delete the -p on password put the password with it,
like it shows in compressor bat file also do not delete the -m put the method name next to it,
you can make you're own or use mine and rename them to whatever you want

If i don't want to set password then password section should be like "-p" only, correct?
