Sorry i'm newbie:)

Use zstd for precompression.

Danziel123

12-12-2018, 10:11

Yes

Use zstd for precompression.

Thanks Kaktor for the answer

This method is enough to compress bf v?
xZSTD + SREP + LOLZ?

even tho the Setup-FixRedist from first posts corrects the redist correctly, the game size is incorrect. Listed as 11GB but it actually now is 50.3 GB

Can you share the script?

the folder with mp_ is the multiplayer files, but you cannot remove them as it cuases the game to crash.

Increase chunk size to 128 mb, this worked for me.

Increase chunk size to 128 mb, this worked for me.

where does this get entered ?

KaktoR

13-12-2018, 09:59

FA.ini = DiskSpan
Config0.ini = UltraARc

packcmd = xtool.exe e:precomp:t75p,c128m:zstd - - <stdin> <stdout>

Another tip is always test precompressors alone with pack + unpack bat (without srep and final compressor) to see if all goes well.

pakrat2k2

13-12-2018, 12:44

KaktoR

13-12-2018, 12:56

Open your eyes :D

[External compressor:xZSTD]
header = 0
;packcmd = _PE\XTool e:precomp:t75p:zstd Input <stdout>
packcmd = _PE\XTool e:precomp:t75p:zstd - - <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = _PE\XTool d:precomp:t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>
datafile = Input

It is right there.

Change to this
packcmd = _PE\XTool e:precomp:t75p,c128m:zstd - - <stdin> <stdout>

It's FA.ini from post #1 right here, even new ultraarc version have this.

pakrat2k2

13-12-2018, 14:50

thanks, just an FYI, you CANNOT remove ANY files from game to try & save space.
The game will refuse to even run if any files are removed.

KaktoR

13-12-2018, 15:17

What about dummy files? I already deleted this crap :D

pakrat2k2

13-12-2018, 16:43

on another forum is was posted that removing any files causes the game not to work.
you should know where.

Increase chunk size to 128 mb, this worked for me.

The result still same 10x dvd 5(41.8 gb):confused:
When try to install, i get this error:

an error occurred while unpacking:
unable to write data to disk!
unarc.dll returned an error code -11 ERROR:
file write operation failed

Btw the folder mp can't be delete/replace with dummy, the game does't start

It would be nice if you ended up talking to someone who does not work and who has any mistakes and if he did it or that they fixed it

there is a reg key for this game. but the game runs without it. maybe it would be necessary for next updates.

zstd didn't work for me. I'd tried that twice even with changing the chunk size, but at the morning I just saw a temp file name as " Infile" that was 52Gb and there were no file in "Conversion_Output" folder.

STOP talk fix setup

you have nothing to Contribute other then to say fix setup which works just FINE, then go elsewhere !!!

Learn how to use the compression methods given in topic already
Use UltraArc goto Resources\config0.ini

[Compression Methods]
<My Method>
MMC=srep:m3f+4x4:b64mb:lzma:ultra:64m:bt4:fb273:lc 8:mc1000000

save the file & choose MMC for method, compress & installs just fine...

Only other thing I came across while installing was some wierd glitches in images...

if the installation works normally it does not matter what compression it uses
dvd1 - dvd 9 4,36 GB dvd 10 4,16 GB use comperion freearc sremp+lzma

dvd1 - dvd 9 4,36 GB dvd 10 4,16 GB use comperion freearc sremp+lzma

it really concerns what conversion you use.
you still might use some methods which would not be appropriate and expect the installation work for you.

as an example an installer may not work with zlib and a game could not be compressed much with zlib too. so if you use that method, you should change the method not the installer because the installer work with a proper conversion method.

I will test again and share exact settings soon (I have already deleted that crap).

adam1906

14-12-2018, 11:56

there was never a problem with the methods I pack only here so the error is in setup.exe every new game repairs and there is no problem here and if I have to change some method of repacking the given you had to change it yourself before you added the description to the installation and do not drop your mistakes on others

fix instal setup not working

after setting where to install the game, I click install and throw the game to the desktop

I think this is your problem.
If you set the installation folder and after pressing next button, you see a fast installation and then you see the finish button, then you have a wrong records.ini or you may not have it in the setup folder

if your problem is something else, you have not mention it and nobody can help you either.

Droppo

15-12-2018, 05:28

I did the compression with ultraarc, got it to 10 DVD5 but when i go to test the installation process it starts and automatically closes without doing any changes.

I use the "Setup-FixRedist" btw... Any ideas?

zirkhaki

15-12-2018, 06:08

I used Diskspan and the game installs with no problem.

after installation process does it show the Finish page or the installer closed?
if you see the Finish page then maybe your Records.ini has something wrong.

use my simple installer and see if it works for you or not.

your records.ini is OK. please try my installer which I attached before your last post

The_Killer

15-12-2018, 08:10

installer shows 11GB for installation and does not create shortcuts of the game in the desktop and in the start menu, it only creates the shortcut to uninstall.

pakrat2k2

15-12-2018, 08:33

Post #10 I already mentioned the increase in size. Just have to hope that houcine80 redoes the conversion with the fixes.

KaktoR

15-12-2018, 09:21

CRC error is 100% on srep or final compressor.

XTool alone works fine (it installs even with CIU).

You have to find out yourself what is wrong. I don't care anymore sorry.

no finish page or anything and my Records.ini seems to be ok. will try with your setup

personal preference is diskspan way over ultrrarc on these big games. Not saying there is anything wrong with UA, but it takes twice the time & space VS diskspan.

Diskspan make archives for a dvd at a time, doesnt split files between dvds & there is the advantage, no need to copy over files, join them together before extracting them. I t just installs going from 1 dvd to the next.

I tested BF5, & it took roughly 15 mins to install from a diskspan created set.
Same UltraArc set took over an hour to install on the same PC.!!!
