I already used it on few games(not wise yet only ogg), it work fine and save up to 10%. I say dont worry and use it everywhere you can.

Its not showing percentage, also the output is 0 byte size, any idea whats d issue here?
i tried with .bik files and it proved successful

I also tried on bk2 before and it worked fine. Try command tools instead of cls.


Btw regarding dlz and lolz, I recommend using them only on .dds files. Thats where they are specialized. Even in .dds files gain was questionable vs speed, saving ~1gb(or ~10%) with added ~2-3h+ of compression. Meh, internal FA's LZMA with lc8 is often more rational option. We simply hit the wall with LZMA where any more % gain add logarithmic scale of time wasted(and power).

You can tell me on which files apply oggre_wwise? How to detect wwise audio?

@ZakirAhmad:

[External compressor:oggre]
header = 0
packcmd = OGGRE_enc $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

I don't know if stdin/out is compatible. You can test it.

Use oggre only. With lzma it is just a few MB, so not worth it after oggre.

BTW did u known the games on which oogre can be applied.

I saw games before with such file extension, .wise/.wwise or something like that. You will know when you see them.
