Hi everyone,
I was reading the posts in 'time to load the game', and notice a few people
had compressed their 'downloads' folder. What program would I use if I
wanted to do that?
I have 3.5 GB in mine and would like to conserve some space.
Thanks for the help

Not dumb at all. It's a fairly new program. I used it and have had no
problems with it. It conserves space, but I didn't notice any appreciable
difference in game loading time. No faster, but no slower either.

Same here. About halved the space the folder was taking up though.

Jeanie, Kat,
The program works very well, It managed to squish my downloads into about 2
GB.
Thanks a whole bunch!!

My load time varies anyway. But the circumstances of the first load after
I did the compression were such that I would expect the longest time, and
that was what I got with little difference.
