EBC 1.8 Packer
I am seeking the EBC 1.8 packer (or newer version if made). If there was an equal character packer invented which can beat the XTC 2.4, please let me know... |

I cant remember if Triangle did the 1.8 version of EBC, but I know Triangle did 1.7

ftp://ftp.scs-trc.net/pub/c64/Tools/Packers+Crunchers/Beast_Lin.. will probably beat EBC. |

much more important than the result of the charpacker itself is the result of a certain charpacker+cruncher combo though...not necessarily the "best" charpacker gives the best result when crunching. |

The EBC 1.8 was created by QED. The best packer I have used so far in conjunction with a cruncher is the ILS packer 2.2, written by Fist! Just packing alone the XTC 2.4 can beat the ILS but when using the ILS 2.2+Darksqueezer, the result is good. Apparently I am still living in the stone ages. There have been tools created since the 90s, that beat everything before. |

you can bet on that :) check out the oneway "hackpacks", byteboiler etc ... and ofcourse exomizer and pucrunch, which probably beat most c64 based crunchers. |
