Compress archives in a mod

Hi! Maybe you now it yet, but when you compress the files to make a .h5u archive,you can compress them to maximum and  the mod still works. When you made a .pak file in others versions of the game you couldnīt do it but now yes. For example im making a terrain replacer mod and from 280m has passsed to 135m and still working!!

This is true.
However, in most circumstances, there won't be much difference between normal and best compression. And the game performance should also be taken into account (loading time at least), and this is not easy to benchmark.

i know, it is an advice for mods really bigs
And the game perfonmance does not really change in a considerable way, at least for me I have all the mods i use  descompressed and joined in categories in new .h5u files and recompressed to the maximum and they works fine.
