I am using a tool (CrossOver) that doesn't recognize the tar.zst archive type.

Another alternative archive type can be added?

Why does Crossover need to support the archive type? Why do you use Crossover in general instead of Proton?

I am adding an installer for a game that needs the d3d12.dll in this repo. Because the built-in is not enough.

I prefer using Crossover for games outside Steam like the battle net ones. I am a collaborator with CodeWeavers.

I use Crossover since 2006.

Sounds like you should collaborate with them to implement zstd archive support

Yes I raised the flag there, it involves changing a python library or using another one. But probably the change won't arrive until CrossOver 23.

The change here is easier, if it only involves what I've done. Also, I noticed that gz produces a smaller file than zst.
