For image format, why not using RAR compression on a
BMP ? With multimedia compression of the RAR
compression we got a ratio of 4 > 1. without quality
lost. There is also an another way to have very small
files : use 256 colors per bitmap which decrease a lot
the file size. Finaly there is the PNG format that
also use a compression without quality lost.
Anyway for the Jpg format, we can use a compression of
90 % with YUV122 sampling and the Huffman
optimizations, like this we got an image that look
like a lot to the original. Only a few details will
disapear. I saw that in Return to Castle Wolfeinstein,
they were using Jpg compression for all textures.
Cheers,
Ariel
