This is technically a save file but I am wondering if anyone here can help decompress it. I have the uncompressed version from the .BIG file but need to know how the custom roster save files compress. I have included the raw .db file for comparison.

DATA file from profiles seems compressed by LZ series (4 probably). DB is not compressed, binary file.

Can you explain why it is different than nhl_game.db which is the raw database file? I'm able to open .db file in an editor but not the DATA from save game folder.

EDIT: According to the post here it starts with 0x78 which is possibly zlib.

Just compare data

Data from DB

The other thing I'm trying to figure out is what this CRCValue is.

In DATA file?

Ya, I don't know a CRC that's 54 bytes in length

This is compressed data, not crc
