Introducing Alternative Compressor.
Something I've been working on for quite a while now, based in parts on the solidly built and well proven Cruncher by Bas
I've included Unren by Sam and

in version 0.3.5
And now added the

Utilises ppx2.exe for high speed image processing, I've reworked other aspects to maximise speed too.
Options to pick quality or skip for images, audio and video
Fine grained image processing quality (1%~lossless)
Pick the number of Threads to use on Images and Video (Caution! Using all threads on an overclocked CPU WILL create a lot of heat)
Option to delete RPA files if they are still in the game folder.
(Now Optional)Will copy game/gui/window_icon.png to the game's root folder as android-icon_foreground.png AND android-icon_background.png (For Android - double check this is the one you want to use if you're porting)
Queue up to 16 games to compress at one time or use the older parallel processing
Create RPA files from media(excluding gui and tl folders as media in these often change between releases)
Create game update packs for Android and PC (new media + scripts only)
Standby Files cache cleaner(I've found windows doesn't manage this well sometimes and gets a bit backed up)

Usage.
Put AIO.bat and comptools folder in the game's root folder
Run AIO.bat
Hopefully understandable from there.
While learning what you can/can't do, make sure you keep a backup
Don't be surprised that you won't see images being processed, nothing will move on screen until the Audio, Video or the summary.

AIO 0.4.5.7 changes
Update unrpa/unrpyc for 8.2
Note: Due to this you will now need to use the game's root directory with lib and renpy folders as this uses the game's own files for extraction
I will be leaving 0.4.5.6 up for those with a freestanding "game" folder
Updated exe files
Removed max variable frame rate as unsupported on newer ffmpeg
Minor powershell tweak as "remotesigned" failing on some machines

Thanks for sharing! You've given me some ideas, for sure. You may want to add some kind of progress monitoring since I have no idea what the script is doing after I start compressing. Task Manager can't even make much sense of things, placing most of the load under the generic "system" process

Despite this, I do see tons of IO outside of the sandbox(I'm running your script in a virtual machine) so it IS working, just can't really make heads or tails of what files it's working on or how quickly they are being finished. :confused:

In any case, it's definitely wicked fast(even with the "slow" setting!) and I bet after a few more iterations, this will be a valuable addition to F95's stable of crunching scripts (y)

Thanks for your kind words, I'll think about adding a live "images processed count" if possible.

No can do on monitoring the image processing for now. Unless I have some radical idea it would be rather difficult to follow.
Even asking cwebp for some output results in a garbled mess due to multiple instances.
Tried several ways of getting a live processed image count, maybe I'll come back to it later.
Best I can do for now is add an image, audio and video count at the settings summary screen pre start.

Another minor update
0.3.3 Changes
Runs webp header fix if images selected and webp files found.
Made fast compression a little slower as images were really bad.

Content Checker
Run this batch file in the game's root folder to see a count of compressible file types
Not necessary but may be useful to some people

Updated to v0.3.5
Some changes to compressor format
Included Unren 0.91, Compressible file checker, unrpyc (will try harder AND overwrite rpy's) and python 2.7
Probably a few other things I've forgotten along the way.
Edit: fixed a few issues.

Updated v0.3.5 AIO again, 7zipped python files and extract only when needed. This will speed up copy time.

Nope, it's not just you. I had to roll back my PC in recovery to verify the issue.
Even rolling back broke a lot of things for me but that particular issue disappeared.
