Question for Precomp

[biotec2k8]

I just can't get the same compression rate as Fitgirl Repacks. I try and try and combine different compressors with each other. It almost works. But there is still something missing. Only what?

Fitgirl uses xdelta to reduce the final size. In some cases, it causes the final size to decrease. And he also checks duplicate files.

I will test Xdelta with Srep. Let's see what comes out of it

Read this before using it.

Yesterday I tried Xdelta with Nanozip (NZ). There is not much that can be compressed if the data has previously been processed with Xdelta. But it is also clear. They have already been changed by Xdelta.

I get the best results using Reflate, Srep, Delta. And the end compression with lzham or FL2 compress. Nanozip compresses a little more. Its CM option gets a little more out of there. But then it also takes longer

Reflate is still a very good option for me. However, it also takes a lot longer

Which combination do you use to compress your files?

Xdelta isn't such a compressor. It's a patcher.
For pre-compressed game files,
I often use "xtool + srep + nz / lolz" or "other_pre-compressor + srep + nz / lolz".

For music files, "Mpz+srep".
For any other file, use "srep + nz / rz".

If I've the possibility of using Xdelta somewhere I'll use it too.
