Witch compression type is used here?

Post by Knobse »

https://uploadify.net/48cd3d578fc32633/file-compressed.bin
and the decompressed file
https://uploadify.net/d75bf97c594a1871/file-decompressed.bin

if you don't know compression type, then how you decompressed it?

aluigi said its possible to do a comtype_scan for knowing witch compression is used
but it didn't work for me , it gives errors as this one

Code: Select all

Can't recognize 'quickbms -a "699 " /pathtofile/comtype_scan2.bms /pathtofile/file-compressed.bin output' as an internal or external command, or batch script.

The scanner provided no results matching the decompressed file ("grep -rs clanxp folder").

and if you do it without matching the decompressed file
do you get a file that has about a near size of the the decompressed file?

looks like simple custom compression

we need to know game name and ability to debug it

lzham is in the list of scanned algorithms of quickbms, so that's not it.
