This looks very good. It is a shame though that you post a group screenshot as it does not allow me to look at each screenshot separately to be able to admire each one closer up in more detail. ;)

All done with no problems at all and installs in around 40 minutes so not bad considering the size, going to do again on different settings see what can get.

Thanks from GTX 590 for this beautiful convertor. Do anyone know a good compression method? Dodi compressed it in about 45GB!

You can use this method posted by doofoo24:

only English
using razor unreal_R5 and cls-bpk for bik video...

method:
mue3:m2+srep:m3f:d1g:a2:lolz:mt4:mtt1:d128:fba4096 :mc1023:pc4:dtb1

Hello GTX590

I used DiskSpan GUI v1.0.0.5.

Hello GTX590
are compression tools up to date ?
Yes DiskSpan_GUI 1.0.0.5 contains the Unreal.dll plugin from the #post (https://www.fileforums.com/showpost.php?p=492002&postcount=99).

However the XTool.exe of DiskSpan_GUI is version xtool_0.3.9 (2021/02/04) and the XTool of the post is from day 2021/05/16, a version created two days after xtool_0.3.11_hotfix (2021/05/14), but before xtool_0.3.12 (2021/05/23) (This XTool from the MELE post is like XTool xtool_0.3.11_hotfix2).
I don't know why Razor12911 doesn't put versions in its executables files, and I don't have to be guided by the modification date.

P:S: This Unreal.dll library which is an intermediate version between unreal R3 and Unreal R4 does not work for some previous games like boderlands 3 (For these and maybe other unreal engine games it will be necessary to rename the r3 library that is in the folder after deleting the current one)

I don't recommend updating the XTool in DiskSpan_GUI to xtool_0.3.11_hotfix (last supported) for other games (Don't update mainly for games that use plugins because some plugins won't be updated to newer versions of XTool).

mue3:m2+srep:m3f:d1g:a2:lolz:mt4:mtt1:d128:fba4096 :mc1023: pc4:dtb1

That's correct:
Wouldn't it be "+" before lolz?

Do bik videos have ".bik" extensions in this game?
If so, I've attached a configuration file for users to test.
If necessary, replace the XTool.exe in the "Resources\PRE\XTool_2020\Win64" folder with the XTool.exe from the file attached to the #post (https://www.fileforums.com/showpost.php?p=492002&postcount=99).
Just replace the files in the folder "Mass Effect Legendary Edition CIU 3.0.0.1.b8.u3" posted by GTX590, search the game directory and compress.
The methods will already be predefined for:
*.bik files:
bpk+srep_new:m3f:d1g:a2+lolz:mt4:mtt1:d128:fba4096 :mc1023:pc4:dtb1

others files:
xtool_ue3_mele+srep_new:m3f:d1g:a2+lolz:mt4:mtt1:d 128:fba4096:mc1023:pc4:dtb1

INFO: Compressions using the new Unreal Engine library (R5) will only be available in DiskSpan_GUI 2.0

@GTX590, when you update your conversion or create a new conversion replace the HF2 posted HERE (https://www.fileforums.com/showpost.php?p=492057&postcount=802) in your CIU source code 3.0.0.1.b8.u3.
In HF2 the "UNINSTALL" button was fixed displaying correct label (On run Uninstall.exe).
It's displaying "PAUSE" in your installer (HF2 fixes this).
GTX590
10-06-2021, 16:10
Conversion updated with latest HF2, file lists and compression method.
Now just point out game directory and start compression.
Thanks to Cesar82.

Going to try this out see if actually works as says and be good if did less BD25 to use..

Stveboss, I suggest you to use compression in Post N°10.
KaktoR
14-06-2021, 11:03
Do NOT use bpk on this. You will get crc errors on installation.

Thanks for the convertor. This is nice and compress well in just 42.5GB (10 DVDs) in about 15 hours. but I'm getting this error in several times. I use booth GTX590 and mausschieber converter and installer at least 2 times each one. and just receive error in 71.2%.

Yeah. :(
So, what is your alternative?
Jarmen_Kell
15-06-2021, 00:11
I replaced the "bpk" with "mue3:m2" and will announce the results tomorrow.
Lets start compressing again!
GTX590
15-06-2021, 08:47
I suggest you to use your own compression method because bpk gives crc errors.
You can choose for example:
Method N°8
xZlib+srep+lolz
KaktoR
15-06-2021, 10:50
mue3:m2

This should be correct.

Edit: https://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p=492296&postcount=2421 (do not use bpk).
