I see, that linux have problems with GZipStream lib.
Mayby i will add option to choice package tool. :hardhat:

For me, under Arch Linux, the save is not compressed when saving either.
No errors related to this in the logs.
Even if only this mod and Harmony are in the mod list.
However, I can convert it manually.

Just tried decompression, works fine too

Mod use GZipStream for .NET Framework 4.7.2 game version. :hardhat:
I tested it on Ubuntu, but other version of linux maybe have some trouble.

Do decompression work fine to you?

Modlist is practically empty, just your mod and some optimization mods (performance optimizer and rocketman). Running on Linux, so maybe that's related? Never stumble into a mod not working due as intended due to OS before tho.
Regardless, the saves compress just fine when done manually

Interesting, can you elaborate more.
Tell me about: modlist, OS version...

Not sure if it's intended this way, but the mod doesn't compress my saves on its own, I have to manually compress them before exiting the game. Toggling Active Save Compression on and off does nothing

WoW, nice. :VBCOOL:
Compress +70GB will take some time.

Yeah, I have +70gb in saves, i hope this can help me lol

Exactly as you said.
You can extend the life of your SSD, because it is archived as a zip file after being written to the drive.
And reduce Steam backup times.

I guess answer is no. Base on my understanding about descriptions, no tps improvement, and it will increase loading time in theory (just very tiny bit, you even won't noticed, since time of unzipping ~50M zip-file feels instant nowadays).
So this mod is for players who have a lot mod loaded, cause per save file large ended up nightmare to drive space. (e.g. me per save file is around 50M and I save a lot :waxquail:)

Hey! This mod looks great. Does save compression help with loading times and also improve performance while playing the save? Thanks in advance!

I have added new functionalities that will allow you to better manage the compression of save files. :hardhat:
keepercraft  [author] 13 May, 2024 @ 12:53am 
Thx, i planning to add more functionality in future. :hardhat:
So, it will be more updates.

Nice fix lol, almost uninstalled but then I checked the changelog on github and updated the mod. Everything works perfectly now :steamthumbsup:

It compress savegame, example: 40MB to ~2MB.
To save your space and ssd health. :VBCOOL:
