I don't recommend you to use threads during compressing , I tried it on shadow of mordor 60 GB Folder & 2 times it failed while the 3rd time it succeeded with no threads ,

other thing , use threads in decompression it's working fine & about the t0 I find it useless it took 100% of my cpu , so discover the most suited threads number for you
in my case i have i3 3.3GHZ I'm using only 2 threads , 80~ of my cpy

auto threads usage for zcm ~ instead of t0 [bat File]

@shift
@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
color 0a
SET threads=%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS%
IF "%threads%"=="" (SET threads=1)
IF "%threads%"=="3" (SET threads=2)
IF "%threads%"=="5" (SET threads=4)
IF "%threads%"=="7" (SET threads=6)
IF /I %threads% GTR 8 (SET threads=8)

IF %threads%==1 (
zcm.exe a -s -v -r -m7 archive.zcm *
) ELSE (
IF %threads%==2 (
zcm.exe a -s -v -r -m7 archive.zcm *
) ELSE (
IF %threads%==4 (
zcm.exe a -s -v -r -m7 -t2 archive.zcm *
) ELSE (
IF %threads%==6 (
zcm.exe a -s -v -r -m7 -t4 archive.zcm *
) ELSE (
IF %threads%==8 (
zcm.exe a -s -v -r -m7 -t6 archive.zcm *
)))))

pls note this will work fine without any problems because i replaced the path of files with * // this is the safest way
so to use it Just copy this batch file & zcm.exe to game folder then launch the batch & it will auto detect threads & compress by threads
the speed of zcm with threads is almost the same as lzma max settings with large dictionary size so it will be good idea to use it
