CompactGUI VS viu

CompactGUI

Also, check out CompactGUI. It's a more user-friendly and efficient way of using Windows' built-in compression to cut the game's file size almost in half. It makes load times marginally longer (like 5-10%) and needs to be redone every few updates to keep the size down, but it works.

You can chuck compact.exe at it by hand (use the /exe option), or if you'd prefer to avoid the command line there's my Compactor tool, or the venerable CompactGUI.

You can also just use compactGui smaller filesizes without having to remove dialogs or cutscenes or anything. Obviously how much space is regained depends on how well it was compressed originally. With triple A titles perhaps getting 10% back, while things like ark can literally be shrunk by hundreds of gigs.

Not really related to your question but if you want to try and save some space you can give this a go, I've used it before and never had any issues. https://github.com/IridiumIO/CompactGUI

How does imgcatr compare?

Viu was last updated 5 months ago, imgcatr 3 months ago, not a significant difference. imgcatr is a longer name than viu, requiring more keystrokes to type.

Terminal image viewer with native support for iTerm and Kitty

in another terminal i sourced and installed a terminal image viewer. this was before i knew the image was gone. anyways, the one i picked is called "viu" (github).

Lastly, yeah, i discovered after that some tools already does this, like viu, i just did not search with the right keyword when i was looking for one. By looking at the simplicity of the tool it was kinda obvious i was not the first person coming with this idea anyway.

Viu works in Alacritty on Plasma Wayland for me.
