Current compressing techniques guidance

[78372]

GTA V contains headerless zlib streams and precomp can't detect them all. You need to use pZlib/reflate.

pZlib is like precomp.

LOLZ is like lzma, but compression gain and decompression speed is far better than lzma.

In general pzlib+srep+lolz is best for games like Mad Max, GTA V etc. with zlib/deflate streams.

About xz, that's external lzma2 implementation.

MSC is better, it's a multimedia compressor for wav/bmp/mp3 etc.

Yeah, fa011 is not that stable.

Yeah, I mentioned those ztool/xtool/pzlib/plz4 etc. are like precomp.

Now tell me, do you know how to configure freearc to use external compressors?
