UZ2 Compression in Vista Ultimate

first make sure you have the ro dedicated server on your computer Or that you have installed RO and the SDK of redorchestra AND copied steam.dll from the main steam folder to your redorchestra system folder.

Start your command prompt program.

use dos to change to your location of the red orchestra system folder.

use comething like this

Code:
CD C:\program files\steam\steamapps\common\red orchestra\system\
after typing that in press enter

Remember to include the CD to change directory to there if you're not on the harddisc where ro is on by default change to that harddisc first by simply entering the harddisc path

if the ro system folder is on local drive D do this first:
Code:
D:
and ending filling putting it in with an enter.

Then when you're in the ro system folder do the following

type.

Code:
ucc compress ..\Maps\RO-Mapname.rom
(so the file you want to compress must be in the correct folder say maps etc of your ro computer hit enter once again after you typed everything

or for say textures

Code:
ucc compress ..\Textures\Texture.utx
and as usual hit enter after typing it in.

you can do the same for pretty much all files

The compressed uz2 files will be in the folder of the original file say the maps folder or the textures folder. for the server all uz2 files must just go in 1 big directory so not in maps or textures paths just http://yourredirectiphere/yourredirectfolder/texture.utx.uz2 or http://yourredirectiphere/yourredirectfolder/RO-Mapname.rom.uz2

So short summary
Make sure you have RO + SDK installed and put the Steam.dll in your ro system folder
You open command prompt and change location to the correct harddisc and folder for the ro system folder
You run the ucc compress command to compress the files.
You get all files you compressed from the folders and put them in 1 main folder on your redirect (and make sure you enable compressed files on your server ini)
