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

[Grumpy]

@darkwolves and Webster17

Can you two please stop mentioning the 'warez' versions you have or have had!

I suggest you read the forum rules or at least read the Big White popup which appears when you first enter the site on each visit.

alrght sorry about that

[darkwolves]

next project opening up the devil may cry 3 HD collection and attempting to make the widescreen cutscenes full screen...
seems to be the only flaw in that game
and
decrypting the files on a few telltale games so can use pzlib on them and post the results

I remember I have used ttarch tool to rebuild the archives of TellTale Games, the game`s size will be bigger (a lot), but the compressed size will be much smaller.
But TBH dont remember exactly the commands I have used in ttarch!
But yeah it is possible to achieve better compression when archives are rebuild-ed!

Batman the telltale series season 1



----note used a telltale modding tool
to extract and rebuild the files
i am not its maker
credit goes to zealot for tool and aluigi for ttarchnext
caution when using this tool be prepared to play the entire game if you do
to verify nothing was messed up

you do not need to do extract and rebuild you just need to decrypt so you have the original compression. if instead if you do extrace and rebuild you can not have the original compression of the game ... and then (pzlib + srep + lolz)
