Hi,

Does the GBA BIOS use a specially modified decompression routine for RLE, Huffman and LZ77 or just a generic one? Or could I just use any compression function I find on the internet to compress my data?

Thanks.

Should be the standard implementations.

You may find this interesting since it covers a bit information about compression:
