Is there a lightweight VHBL menu with compression support?

Hello!

I'm currently using the 138 menu on the Puzzlescape exploit.

I'm wondering if there is another light menu that has support for real file compression (not only the "store files" option)?

I know that the programs (ex. eboot.pbp) inside the INSTALL.ZIP file themselves must not exceed 1mb when uncompressed. But we could make packs with more roms in them if compression was allowed.

Even if you could decompress a 5MB rom into memstick, it will crash ePSP when an emulator tries to open that file because it's over 1MB.

Sorry I didn't get that part.
Let me give you a tip then: You don't need the install.zip method at all if you use QCMA. Just create a folder inside a savedata and put all your stuff there then transfer. There's no file name/size/count limits this way.
