LZ4 Compression 1.4.0

Bundled LZ4 profiles

  • The tested community TOMLs ship with the app: ASTRO BOT, EA Sports UFC 6,
    and the Insomniac and Unity engine profiles, all from danthespal's
    MkPFS.CSharp.
  • Automatic picks one on its own by Title ID, name, or the game's file
    layout, so a matching game already has the right TOML when you open it. The
    game page shows which profile it will use.
  • Scan only skips the bundled profile, and a config you imported yourself
    still wins.

Games only

  • The library only lists games now. Apps that ShadowMount+ mounts next to them
    (homebrew, media apps) are left out: anything under 2 GB counts as an app.

Fixes

  • Compress with LZ4 and Test Read Speed work on .exfat images while the app
    is open. ShadowMount+ won't mount anything while a game or app is running,
    so the engine now mounts the image read-only itself for the job. It also
    works on a second copy of a game that ShadowMount+ isn't using.
  • Uncompressing an .ffpfsc to an image on another drive used the folder
    name and failed after writing the whole image. It gets the right name now.
  • The Uncompress page shows the real uncompressed size, greys out drives
    without room, and picks one that fits. Job errors show sizes in GB instead
    of bytes.

Install

  1. Add lz4-compression.elf to Payload Manager, so it sits at
    /data/pldmgr/payloads/lz4-compression/lz4-compression.elf.
  2. Unzip LZ4-Compression-PPSA99420.zip and copy the PPSA99420 folder to
    /data/homebrew/PPSA99420 over FTP (replace the old one). ShadowMount+
    adds the LZ4 Compression tile (close any running game if it doesn't show
    up).
  3. Open the tile.

Tested on firmware 13.60 with Payload Manager, kstuff and ShadowMount+ 1.7.
Keep your original game until you've launched the packed version.
