How do I find it? I downloaded Playground, but it's nowhere to be found! Sad
it's here http://forums.pcsx2.net/thread-3716.html, "plugins ... 18 February".
copy it from 0.9.4
the one included in 0.9.4 is linuzappz 0.7.0, and he's asking for 0.8.0
oh.. I don't think I have 0.8.0, but I could be mistaken. good eye though, I never would have caught that

Thank you very much!
I have two questions.

First, is there a Linuzappz Iso CDVD plugin thread? I was unable to find one using Google or this forum's search.

Second, does anyone know what algorithm or base Linuzappz uses for compression? It's amazing and is really powerful. It roughly doubles WinRaR and even seems to out do 7-Zip. On average it compresses a 4GB ISO down to 3GB which is incredible considering ISO images don't usually pack so good, especially with only a few large files inside like a PS2 image has. The only thing I've ever seen come close to that is WinUHA. Anyways it's quite impressive. Thanks.

you could try looking at the source code
http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pl...CDVDlinuz/
That's what it's using AFAIK: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip

Ah yes, of course. I suppose I could have done a Google search for .BZ2 but I didn't even think of it. Anyways I've never heard of BZ2 before. After reading a bit more it seems 7-Zip handles .BZ2 extensions as well. Nice.

Thanks.
