Q) Why do I need this program?
A) Because no matter how many optimisations you have it still takes forever for each level to load in Doom3, even on a SATA 150.
Q) What does it do?
A) Recompresses the pk4 files to different compression factors, this should take much less time to load data and levels at the expense of hard drive space. Options are:
Uncompramised Speed - footprint = 3.92GB - Uses no compression but keeps the files in a pk4 format instead of spilling them out, where speed is valued over hard drive space.
Fastest Compression - footprint = 1.57GB - Uses minimal compression for faster access whilst still having a relatively small footprint.
Original Compression - footprint = 1.45GB - The original compression factior of Doom3, effectively a undo function.
