Features

Volume compression

Volumes are compressed using the classic zip algorithm. The zlib library for buffer compression and decompression was taken as a basis. In order for the game to decompress the volume in real time without loss of performance, a special interface Gratt-5r2/ZippedStream was implemented and built into vdfs32g. The essence of the interface is that it allows you to pack and read files in blocks of a given size and keep unpacked data in memory in a specific range.

Volume optimization

Optimization refers to the procedure of identifying files with the same content and combining them under a common data source.

File Explorer Interface

The program interface has a set of standard file explorer operations - copying, pasting, renaming, searching, etc.

Drag&Drop

The function allows you to drag files into the program, as well as pull them out of it. For this function to work correctly, user (administrator) rights must match for the program and Explorer.

Updating a volume in 1 click

The program analyzes shared files in the volume and in the game directories (Ctrl + U). If there are physical copies, when you save the volume, updated files will be written to it.

Opening files directly from a volume

To avoid wasting time unpacking the volume, double-click on the file of interest, after which it will be opened.
