Decompresses the Fallout New Vegas BSAs and repacks them without zlib compression for performance, additionally transcodes the .ogg sounds effects to .wav so they work. It also extracts any mp3 files to loose files because they will not play when in a BSA.

FNV BSA Decompressor
Simple tool to decompress the FNV BSA's and repack them without zlib to increase performance on modern systems. Additionally, it transcodes all sound effects in .ogg format to .wav so they function in the game. It also extracts any mp3 files to loose files because they will not play when in a BSA.
Usage: Run the tool, select your base game folder and press the decompress button. The tool decompresses the files in your base game folder.
Uninstallation: Verify your games files integrity in Steam or GOG client.
Performance comparison:
Additionally, average loading speed decreased by 0.5 seconds. (Will vary per hardware)
Test methodology: - Framerate - 3 30-seconds runs per variant, starting from Doc Mitchell's house to the highway. - Loading speed - 10 runs per variant, loading the same save from a fresh launch of the game. Testing by Ungeziefi
