Which reminds me that I need to play a bit with it some day to see how much is gained from a larger compression window... User Comment Submitted by WVL on 4 April 2009 Yes, there was already a 35 track version, but that was just a quick hack that needed 2 disksides, and didnt even ask the user to turn the disk.. LZWVL is a simple cruncher, built for speed only. It's a lot better than RLE-kind of packers, and worse than byteboozer or levelcrusher. But it's almost as fast in depack speed as a RLE packer.. It just sits at a different point in the compromise between depack speed and compression ratio, which gives you more options and choice :) BTW, you didnt see the distortion before, because you don't have a coder's eye ;) User Comment Submitted by Jammer on 4 April 2009 rambones >> afaik every stretcher has this 'bug'. it's just simplification of calculations identical with sound stretching in older audio software - you could easily hear this 'stammering'. here, the checkerboard is used as a texture thus it's yet more noticeable. User Comment Submitted by MagerValp on 4 April 2009 WVL said on IRC that he just sent out the 35 track as a private beta to a few folks. The screenshot is not buggy, it's from when it stretches. User Comment Submitted by SIDWAVE on 4 April 2009 why this ? didnt WVL already release a 35t version ? why does the screenshot has bugs ? User Comment Submitted by iAN CooG on 3 April 2009 Less compression but I think is faster in decompression =) Actually all the demo data could be heavily compressed with exomizer and would fit <640blocks, probably it's too slow in decompression. User Comment Submitted by MagerValp on 3 April 2009 So... how does LZWVL compare to Exomizer? Faster? Harder? Scooter?
