QuikZIV

QuikZIV is an uncompressing tool for ZIV and SQZ files, using either LZW or Huffman+RLE compression. Developed to remove the protection of the CD-ROM version of Quik The Thunder Rabbit, it supports most (if not all) of Titus Interactive older games:

  • Prehistorik
  • Quik The Thunder Rabbit
  • Super Cauldron
  • Titus The Fox (and Moktar)
  • The Blues Brothers (series)

Some games, like Prehistorik 2, have some files that are not supported, either because of a different compression method or an additional level of protection.

For more in-depth information and details visit the DOS Game Modding Wiki. Credits:

  • Jesses for all the research on the compression and the original uncompression implementation in pseudocode and Perl (in which I strongly based on).
  • Eirik for the UnSQZ unpacker and the great OpenTitus project.
  • Frenkel for the QuickBASIC implementation of the Huffman algorithm and its awesome page S&F Prod.
