Halo everyone
This is a test method to use Uharc with reflate and freearc.

NOTE While compressing make sure the folder name must not contain any symbol.

If it is not a Conversion for a specific game then it does not belong in the 'PC Games - CD/DVD Conversion' forum, it belongs in the 'Conversion Tutorials' sub forum ;)

My friend, you've made a mistake. The configuration file (arc.ini) should change as follows.

[External compressor:uharc]
packcmd = uharc a -m3 -bpb+ $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = uharc x y+ $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

to

[External compressor:uharc]
packcmd = uharc a -m3 -bpb+ $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = uharc x $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

or

[External compressor:uharc]
packcmd = uharc a -m3 -bpb+ $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = uharc x $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

I used custom configuration file for decompression [oo7.ini], arc.ini is just for compression.

(Sorry, I moved it there; it was originally in the "PC Games" forum. But that wasn't the proper place either. ;))

I know, but compression also gives me errors. so I made the above changes and it works fine now.

Cls-uharc.dll / Cls-uharcmt.dll


These libraries allow us to use uharc with FreeArc without a command line.

cls-uharc.dll = Single Threaded.
cls-uharcmt.dll = Multi Threaded.

What is the use of cls-uharc if you can suppress information by using "-d0" parameter.

We don't use any cls to suppress information. Cls helps to use something with FreeArc without some commands and it is easy to use. There you can see how "uharc" works with FreeArc without the "arc.ini" file.

All good Joe, it is in the right place now. :)
