so what's your opinion which compressor shuld i use instead of lolz(turtle)?

You can use paq8 to do that, if it's really worth waiting

Paq8 low compression speed is the speed of extraction?

Hey @everyone how can pzlib be used instead of lolzx for lzo compressed files ?
aren't pzlib for deflate and zlib detected streams ?
and lolzx for lzo detected streams ?

lolzx is a misleading name.

It's not misleading. lolz have nothing with lzo.

lolz, lolzi, lolzx, lol... are simply my namings for each generation and for saving backwards compatibility

Can you point me to a precompressor/compressor that can detect the streams in the .uassets files of unreal engine 3/4 to get a better ratio other than your private tool?

There are no such public tools.

@Fitgirl who uses that kind of tool are they blackbox or you ?

[EzzEldin16]

what is it for then ?

[danswano]

Awesome

Other groups (excluding Revenants) can only decompress UE3 files, making them not bit-perfect. But in many games it leads to game bugs, including inability to play them through.

Ya better use paq8 XD, 8h to decompress a 100m file
lolz is just too slow for me, 167k/s(Yeah I have a noob pc), not worth that speed, so I prefer dlz which also allows better dds compression like lolz.

Try -mc8 -tt1 -dto0 -dm00 and you will see the difference. Use only on textures, e.g. .tfc, .dds, .tex,... while lzma on rest. I just repacked almost 60g xcom 2 wotch like that, game compressed in ~2h how about that. Size = same as FG, not counting extra 6g gain from recoding vids.

Thanks. I will be applying on GTA V rpf files, everything is textures except few, should I go for this settings?

lolz -mc8 -tt1 -mt1 -mtb512 -d128 -fba4096 -dto0 -dm00

Edit: Still it's asking for 33hours, I think I should use a more simpler settings

Edit2: Ok, I need an upgrade :P
