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

[JustFun]

@felice2011 and @RestOfYou

Yepp, files are separated, then compressed according to the file type, for example Videos are done using -mbpk+srep, I didn't specify any extra {options}, I literally put -mbpk+srep command into cmd and left it to do its job. Why? I prefer speed!
Also Srep isn't always the best option, but I prefer it because installation is faster.

Best method doesn't always have to be smaller size, some people would rather have faster compression/installation over smaller size.

That is the point of this thread, to have multiple choices of methods to choose from, either use one that will give you smaller size or one that sacrifices few MB`s/GB˙s, but has faster compression/decompression.

I hope I clarified good enough so you guys can understand what I meant to say.

Example:
1. msc. -ddsDXT=1; -bmf=9; -raw=0; - default;
bmf not stable. (does not support some cpu). (and lolz have dds filters)
raw=2 better audio search.
better -mmsc:ddsDXT=0:raw=2

2. lolz. -fba256; - default;
better -mlolz:fba4096
or look -mtt and -mt usage.
3. srep. -m3; - default;
cls-srep don't support m3 metod. need using m3f.
4. Read how to use it first, before using the default options.

So let me understand, because I'm having trouble with your posts, you posted 3 separate methods that can be chosen is used for compression of the entire game, the 3 methods differ from (Max Speed/Min Compression), (Average Speed/Medium Compression), (Max Compression/Min Speed).
It's right ?
