>It took A LONG FUCKING TIME for it to compress for me.
>Fuck torrents

Why do you think PEOPLE USE TORRENTS

It's going to take three hours for it to decompress.

I could download the game from my private tracker in maybe two or two and a half hours.

Bleh.

So how much AIDS did you package into it? Trying to get premium points?

>torrents

LOL

>It includes KGB Archiver
>botnet.exe

>>3259656

So compile it from the source. You can inspect it for any such malicious intent while it does.

Is this shit real? Let alone possible?

>>3259732
no

lol i don't think anyone has made an entire video game entirely procedural

>>3259717
Fuck I'll bite. I'll use the official unpacker and hope you haven't browsed the bugtracker for buffer overflow exploits.

They need to multi-thread the compression, this could be going much faster.

>>3259749
.kkrieger

You fuckin' retard.

Impossible.

>>3259732
from what I've seen in dabbling - in general no, but there some transform/recursion ideas I've had I'd love to test - mathematically/thermodynamically sound but perhaps not practical.

Somebody run it on a VM already.

>>3259773
Agreed, and 64 bit.
But multithread should have been their first priority.

>>3259775
Haha, I forgot what it was called, so I did a "lol i troll you".

Confirmed Legit, took 6 hours to decompress but it worked ( I've used this shit before )

>>3259808
I want to believe.

You can't compress 700mb to 64kb. Compression doesn't work that way.

>>3259775
.kkrieger isn't gta sa

>>3259798
I'm running it on my main PC.

KGB Archiver is open source and this compression is possible. lrn2compress

>>3259798
Have to install .aids 3.5 sp1 first

>>3259808
Do you have a fucking time machine or something? Six hours have not passed since the file was uploaded and the OP was posted.

>>3259815
It's entirely possibly if you're compressing 700 million zeros.

KGB only compresses to about 20% of the original file size, and that depends on what you are compressing.

I'm calling bullshit

Guessing KGB archive is 700 MB worth of zeroes. Nice try, OP.

Says it's 670MB. Torrent is almost 4 gigs. Something doesn't add up here OP.

I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS IS REAL.

I'll run it on a VM, but it'll take a while.

>>3259815
in an advanced asa class i attended the instructor claimed that md5 shouldn't be used because it could be reversed. therefore, ANYTHING can be compressed to 16 bytes. i mean, the man's a cisco instructor. he'd know.

LOL, try this shit on /b/ OP, people on a tech board aren't stupid enough to download your malware.

>>3259831
Even if you DID compress it that much, who can assure me that the *.exe included isn't a virus?

Decompressing now.
Fuck if this is real....

>>3259864

Anti-virus, duh.

>>3259852
must be a rip, macfag

I don't think it's good. All the complete files are corrupt.
It's bullshit people.

>>3259856
MD5's can be faked, as in two files having the same md5, so how is a decompressor supposed to decompress to the right one?

>>3259883
maybe i didn't add enough dripping sarcasm to my story.

>Fuck if this is real
if you think there is a chance that is real you're a fucking idiot.

ITT: we fail information theory.

Why the fuck is /g/, of all boards, downloading and extracting this?

Fuck this. It says it going to take 2000 hours in my vm. OP enjoy your premium points.

>>3259903

/g/ got totally fucked up seemingly overnight

>>3259877

Dumbass, I have a windows partition.

I have a 600MB folder of SNES roms.

I'll compress with KGB Archiver and see where that takes us

>>3259916
okay here we go

>>3259903
Why do you care? I'm sure there are 3 rig buildan threads for you. All of us know that op is bullshitting and probably preloaded the thing with a lot of AIDS and zeroed the files to be compressed. OP is now enjoying his premium points.

Well obviously I didn't download the OP's fail, but I decided to test KGB out (compiled myself of course).

9,266 KB of text:
KGB: 1220 KB
RAR: 1497 KB

Not quite the miracle archiver.

>>3259926

It's probably not going to help much if the files are already compressed. It may even increase file size.

>>3259775
That game was procedurally generated, not compressed.

>>3259913
I think we all wish this were possible.

>>3259926
got anything else to do? if not, prioritize it higher plz

I remember the Longhorn leak came like this. It's gotta uncompress a few times IIRC

>>3259937

Does this really work? I have a 20GB archive I want to compress to extreme, will I be able to compress those 20GB to something like 3GB and burn it to a DVD for storage and use later on?

>>3259991
No

>>3259971

cool 000... bro

OP here.

I will leave it decompressing. I will report back when complete and then we will know for SURE.

Here's it's current progress

>>3259991
It really depends on what it is, but probably not. Tell me the content type and I'll take a guess at it based upon what I've seen.

I'm confused

Is 0 supposed to be fucking light or something

I have wondered for a long time if a certain program could be made. You download the program and a large reference file, the reference file would be something like 10-20gb. The program would work by taking the file you want to compress/expand and looking at the 20gb file for large chunks of data that match parts of your file. Think of how PAR works it would be something like that.

>>3260040
20GB to replace all possible data?

Sounds like a cool story brah

>>3260040
if the original is already heavily compressed then its close to random/psudorandom - so no part is any more common than any other part, so libraries of the type you describe don't really work - but I'm only a dabbler in such things.

>>3260018

It's just a bunch of programs and archives I load everytime I format and reinstall windows on my machine. Mp3's/Icons/Programs/Drivers etc I just want to be able to store it on a Pendrive or something boom unzip it overnight or whatever.

I didn't know there existed an algorithm that good. Which is a good part of the reason why I believe that 64KB is a troll, but will dl to know.

>>3260060
Not all data but in something the size of 20gb there would have to be quite a few large hunks (256 or more bits) that would be identical.

ITT

Tards don't know about mah .kkrieger or how it/compression works.

This isn't a miracle archiver... look at the benchmarks and comparisons here:

http://www.maximumcompression.com/index.html

Its cutting edge, but has some drawbacks - like requiring the same version of PAQ to compress/uncompress in many cases, and not providing that huge of a gain over things like 7zip for some filetypes.

>>3260040

Hey bro I daydreamed that too but the reference file would only need TWO BITS of data because they make up everything binary (most computers) does.

>>3260040
Thats a really good idea, no joke I think I may code archiver to do something like that

>>3260087

No way in hell you are getting that down to 3 then. Mp3s are already compressed, so you aren't going to get anything out of them. You might get some out of the programs, but they probably aren't very big to begin with.

>>3260120

God damn...

>>3260120
Nice troll attempt but you miss my point and what I am talking about already exists with PAR files, I am just talking about taking it a step further.

>>3260140

>compressing .pngs

>>3260143
So you are going to do par2 in reverse? Still enjoy distributing parity files that are just as large as the ones you intend to "compress"

>>3260106
>Q. Why didn't you include program xxxxx ?
>I don't include clones of a program (like PAQ clones WinUDA, Emilcont and KGB)
>KGB

>>3260143

What you want to do is what compressors are doing already but add another 20GB to download, what if something isn't contained in your silly reference file? Nothing hah.

>>3260100
.kkrieger wasn't compressed, dumbass.

>>3260184

>how it
>/compression works
>/

>>3260184
When you think about it compression and procedural shit are very similar

Could not load image 'setup.bmp'.
BMP image has bogus header data

May compress it, but useless if it has low rate of success in decomp...

>>3260174
You would only download the 20gb file once not every time you download a fucking file.

If part of the file could not be found in the reference file it would then be compressed in a normal fasion.

>>3260220

10/10

As an undergraduate CS student all i have to say is:
HONK HONK

lol .kkrieger

I'm shooting fairy dust onto robot spiders

Jesus christ, you don't compress an archive...there is a massive rar inside...

The ico file turned into
"
ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿ + ÿ * 10^100
"

Worked great, bro.

>64KB

That's insufficient information to encode 4GB, even if you had quantum computers. There are a shitload of collisions, and you can't have even one.

OP here

26.7% in

JUST WAIT UNTIL I'M PLAYING SAN ANDREAS, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE TO SAY THEN

Regardless of whether or not this actually succeeds in acheiving that kind of compression, it's useless without an md5 list.

>>3260383
I would say awesome since the cosmic radiation would have flipped the exact bits on your hard drive recreating san andreas

>>3260222
If it's random data, the size of the chunks would be just as big as the amount of space it takes to say which chunk you're using.

>>3260469
If this occurred, and you copied the resulting bits and distributed it across the internet, would it still be piracy?

This was useful in the days when bandwidth cost money, but sadly didn't exist then. It is now redundant technology, good tech, but useless.

>>3260594
Aye, when every 6 year old can own a seedbox, and a few TB of SATA drives, there is little need for compression.

>>3260515
Of course it would be. The independent discovery clause of patent law has never successfully protected anyone.

>>3260594
It'd still be much safer and more convenient to just send a few dozen movies as a single email attachment.

Fuck you guys. Some of us are still on 768k.

>>3259903
Curiosity you faggot, get back to ... well fuck just get out.

>>3260661
I'm just doing it in a VM to get the irc channel these zombies are going to congregate on.

it's a fake.

however, gentoo linux isn't

>>3260651
You're thinking about it the wrong way.
Person a asks for movies.
person b: "sure" initiate direct upload, or provide torrent links
person a has files in < 10 hours(depending on speed availability, etc.)
as opposed to
person b begins compressing, hogging 90% of system resources for 2 weeks.
person a is sent files 2 weeks after request and is 1) no longer interested b)unable to decompress due to hashing errors.
