Can anyone tell me witch compression type is used to decompress this file?

i have the compressed file
https://uploadify.net/48cd3d578fc32633/file-compressed.bin
and the decompressed file
https://uploadify.net/d75bf97c594a1871/file-decompressed.bin

because i want to edit the decompressed one and compress it back but i don't know witch compression type is used

if you don't know compression type, then how you decompressed it?

i didn't decompress it myself i found the file in cache (the cache deletes itself every time)

aluigi said its possible to do a comtype_scan for knowing witch compression is used
but it didn't work for me , it gives errors as this one

Code:

Can't recognize 'quickbms -a "699 " /pathtofile/comtype_scan2.bms /pathtofile/file-compressed.bin output' as an internal or external command, or batch script.

The scanner provided no results matching the decompressed file ("grep -rs clanxp folder").

and if you do it without matching the decompressed file
do you get a file that has about a near size of the the decompressed file?

looks like simple custom compression

we need to know game name and ability to debug it

lzham is in the list of scanned algorithms of quickbms, so that's not it.
