[TS2] JFade's Compressorizer - No Path Limit

If you've ever tried to compress your Downloads folder all at once with The Compressorizer you've probably hit the path size limit, triggering an error.

I made this hacked version of it that removes this limitation.

Download: Patreon / SFS

You can use it stand-alone, or extract the .zip into your original Compressorizer folder, replacing the files.

I've also renamed the "Recursive?" checkbox and relocated it to make its purpose clearer.

Compressing my Sims 2 Downloads folder

Apparently I have 18,307 files... *opens a book*

#sims 2 #compressorizer #not bad #i need more cc

Sweet! 1,960 MBs saved. About 1.70 GBs. That's pretty good. I think. xD Compared to the 8 GBs it was, I'd say good. *nods* Now off to bed.

Night!

So I thought I should Compressorizer my sims 3 packages. All 3,295 of them. That does not include my sims3packs or anything. Total size in MB, 8,699 which is roughly 8.50 GBs. Let's see how much it saves! I'll probably have to wait an hour or something though. LOL. I just started on the D's. Started a little before 9pm it's almost 9:30pm. Yeah...this might take a while.

Sims 2: Compressing your files

One of my rituals after downloading new CC for my game is compressing the files. Now sometimes, it’s done for me and that’s good. But many CC makers don’t, and it leaves the users, like you and me, to compress these files. It’s tedious, especially if you have LARGE download folders.

My downloads folder is pretty big. It could be a lot bigger if I allowed it, but I’m using a laptop that is limited on disk space. Since I play other games and do other stuff on this laptop, space is important, and I can use all the space I can get. I do have an external hard drive, sure, but unfortunately, I haven’t found a way to direct all my downloads to go into it instead of into my C drive. Pretty sure it’s not possible.

Anyways, The Compressorizer can make these uncompressed big old files into smaller files. Not sure how it works exactly, but at times, these files can be 50, 60, even 75% smaller than its original. That’s fucking sexy. Let’s give a small example.

My recent compress was of 4 folders—mods, hair (which is a 1,456-file monster in and of itself), clothing, and furniture. Over 500 MB’s of space taken from these 4 folders. I have more folders, but since I haven’t downloaded anything new in those folders, I decided to leave em be for now.

As you can see in the screenshot, I managed to save up over 100 MB’s of space. That’s huge. I was watching the compressing the whole time and I saw some files that were 4 MB’s large. WHAT THE HELL? Then they got compressed to 1 MB. A 75% difference in size. I dunno about you, but 1 MB is much better than 4.

The good thing about the Compressorizer is that any .package files can be compressed. Your neighborhood files can be compressed if you wanted to (and may even help load your game a little faster). It’s safe to use on those files btw. So go on and compress your files! Reclaim your disk space! Somewhat.
