View Full Version : Mad Max
Hello would like to know how to compress Mad Max to 4GB, I've tried and does not work UltraArc
That's strange... maybe coz the game is just 32GB and most files are already ARC compressed??? maybe that's why

You could use reflate and/or precomp brute to get that size, more or less.
reflate does not compress files with the extension .arc
I used the precomp jpg 0.42 recompression of UltraARC, and I have not had good results
You could use reflate and/or precomp brute to get that size, more or less.
Is there any installer that actually supports reflate so far?

create a .bat file and edit that like this
"@echo off
cls
echo Recompressing file: %1
title Recompressing file: %1
rd /s /q temp
md temp
rawdet %1 temp\.out temp\.str temp\
echo Recompressing with PRECOMP
for /R %%i in (*.raw) do (precomp.exe -brute0 -cn -o%%~pni.pcf %%~pni.raw & del %%~pni.raw)"
and use this script for
"archives_win64\Game1.arc"
"archives_win64\Game2.arc"
"archives_win64\Game3.arc"
"archives_win64\Game13.arc"
"archives_win64\Game37.arc"
"patch_win64\Game0.arc"
===============================
and don't touch "archives_win64\game0.arc" file because it would'nt compress. this is a kind of media file.
and for the other Game*.arc Files
use precomp043 only (on brute) to recompress the *.arc files.
You can use this script for these
"
for /R %%i in (*.arc) do (precomp.exe -brute0 -cn -o%%~pni.arc.pcf %%~pni.arc & del %%~pni.arc)"
===============================
you need to have
precomp043.exe
raw2hif.exe
rawdet.exe
rawrest.exe
if you need any helping I will help
good luck Bro :D

here is the secret behind the compression
will explain when i have time
1. Truerepacks, not understand how to operate new folder
2. Hassandgn34, would be so kind as to create this folder with all necessary files and Share please

@truerepacks you took those files from a temporary folder of the fitgirl installation ... you know explain their operation in compression and decompression.

*Sighs* Amigos ,you are so fixated on blowing your HDDs and copying things that you guys don't even try yourself...
When MadMax is concerned, you can easily get 4 GB mark with just REFLATE+MSC+SREP+LZMA. No need of burning up HDDs.
Bonus: If you wanna beat Ms FG, then, try extracting all the MP3 and then using mpzslimmer on it. It results about 300 MB gain.
Now, last week @Amsal inquired about JC3, I was like awe struck when I heard you guys were going to use Byte Patcher...Man, HDDs are costly...I repacked it & got 22.9 GB without any of those stuff (Includes all Audio & is of 50 GB).
SO, quit burning disks & copying & start exploring.

i don't remember it correctly (its been half a year or so)
maybe they probably extract the .dds files from the archives and put the dummies in place of this, process the files with precomp and then with reflate(may be not reflate, there is only raw2hiff[fgpack2] in installation folder
When MadMax is concerned, you can easily get 4 GB mark with just REFLATE+MSC+SREP+LZMA. No need of burning up HDDs.
but my question is how would you kindly pass the folder with all necessary files
just you want to compress the game, lossless audio and video

no no I don't use reflater.exe (and cls-reflate.dll etc.) of @Razor12911.
I use reflate.exe to extract *.arc files to raw and after Raw files would be recompressed with precomp.
and at the last I put all the files in a folder and I compress these with msc+srep+lzma.
and it gives 4.1 - 4.2 gb compressed archive.
when I am free, I will share all the files for each steps.
and I will explain them again. ok?
I'll be waiting hasandgn34

what is the different between of them? using razor's reflate or extracting raw files in arc files??

it is realy very good tool. but is limited 2GB input data to rebuild. but the game has 30 gb arc files. :D
that is why, use reflater or I use rawdet and after rebuild all the raw files manually.

did you try?
that method is going to take so long especially guys with normal hdd's and slow proccessors.i have tested multi methods anything with precomp brute it crazy times.and msc dont wont on those arc files as they are encrypted.

yes it takes to many times, but msc is working after precompressed file on brute with precomp. size will change.

Got a chance to look at this game and I was right about this.
Reflate easily gets you 4GB without the need of precomp nor msc.
Compression takes about 8 hours.
You have to use this

yes, if you see the files I send ,i used similar methods to this.
it means, gozarck used rawdet and later raw2hif.exe.
but, I used rawdet and later precomp for some files, because generals of them can be recompressed on brute mode with precomp already. :D

:rolleyes: Well, you are seeing what I see, but others are ignoring it...Thats why they need to use Precomp...
Man, how lazy can ya guys be...

Remember, we talked about JC3, this is the thing which you need to compress them without Precomp.
Its been lying around for about a month but no one noticed it yet created 6 new topics for the same old question which was answered back there. :mad:

More pics from Panker, received these this morning.
@LuzhinE
Panker doesn't release tools anymore, lotta vultures should I say. Same reason I haven't released full version reflate.
Nice compared to FitGiRL's Repack..
Or much more like it cause it took the same time

Let me understand Bro... you have posted pictures with the latest Panker tools and full version of reflate for the excellent compression MadMax ... but the way to obtain this will be released or remain only the photos as an example.:rolleyes:

What I did was show what reflate alone could do, not mine but just any. I recommended people to use GOZARCKs reflate if they want the same size, the time it takes might be longer to compress or decompress, not my problem otherwise, my journey with Panker began in Christmas last year, while everybody was celebrating, we were busy working on it, only had a few support from a few my other friends then in Feb, I hadn't had thought of sharing reflate until we had a major problem, this needed mass testing, so I thought of posting a couple of tests on reflate to help fix the problem then maybe post the previous working version of reflate, posted the test, no response whatsoever, and since I'm on capped internet, I had to do a lot of research, test on games I downloaded etc, that costed a lot of money, figured out solution after 2 weeks, it would have taken 3 days and less resources if forum only helped, we then came to a decision me and Panker to see what would happen if we post reflate on fileforums, we wanted to see what the heck everybody was because of no tests, we limited it to take no more than 2GB input and made it close to impossible to get good sizes for games, it didn't even take hours to get responses from people like Mini that there are bugs and etc and requests that I should implemenent level setting feature, you felice tell me as a developer yourself. You make a request, please test this program, you get nothing, user comes along and requests something, should you give it to them? Plus there was a user who said reflate multi thread froze their PC, you can also take a good guess as to why is that. Since in the past I have been accused of stealing other people's work, the creators complained, e.g. yener. I then made my own programs, for example that Windows Phone Installer, I've seen it many times people removing credits, I never complained, reason is I have done that myself to someone else, but what I do is simple, I just stop updating program all together, if you check, WPI is no longer updated, why? Because of that, ASC is the same story, reflate, same story though with reflate, it's a dfferent story, I just made it difficult for the user to get what they want from it because the programmers life was also made difficult.
You get what you give, which translates to, you are not going to get anything out of something you didn't put in.
Anyways, you can get 4GB on Mad Max just by using GOZARCKs reflate, srep, delta and lzma2 from mask compression by Panker, use x64 and set high dictionary to better size, I refer people to use GOZARCK's reflate because you have choice on that reflate, otherwise the reflate I posted is also limited just to work for most games otherwise for games like GTAV, Mad Max, it will never work there.

Dear Razor we make our own what is of them, to the world nothing is created and nothing is destroyed, but everything is transformed, today versions of compressors or pre-compressors there is are a quantity, all similar to each other but not identical, from your experience and that of Panker, I think it is not difficult to appropriate modify or improve the same compressor, in order to develop a better one with your signature, it to be best than others and doing envy a all.
As I said before I also do not create anything for human nature (Read Signature), but transform and improve what already exists, and is a continuous cycle in the human nature, from the first steam train, till the last train a magnetic suspension.
I hope that you understood the meaning of my response.
Greetings and say hello to Panker.;)

*Welcome all to the Philosophy group of FileForums...Here we discuss Karma, Fruit of Karma & Theories about World*
:p Here's mine : "Every human being relies on and is bounded by his knowledge and experience to live. This is what we call “reality”. However, knowledge and experience are ambiguous, thus reality can become illusion. Is it not possible to think that, all human beings are living in their assumptions?"
Sorry Razor12911 i have a very different point of view of you.
Bro, i want to tell you one thing clearly, if you make program then people will use it for sure, and that is also right that nowdays people are vultures like, but that doesn't mean that you will count everyone as vultures only, everyone doesn't know everything, Gozark know about reflate, but doesn't know delphi like you, everyone has their own qualities, and yes there are some types of fools too maybe me too but i share my experience and what i know about my skills, see ramiro, he too teaches others to get there way, and yes you can say that out of 40 only hardly 10 people are helpful and working, but that doesn't mean that becoz of that 30 peoples, the rest of 10 people will get the punishment! People are greedy and selfish, there is no doubt, but not everyone there is like that! I give you one example, if you will open a thread and say you have 100 dollar gift card, 90/100 people will say send it to me, and if u say that i want help for earning money for some issues, then 10/100 people will sure help you and will do it as much as they can from there knowledge. I respect you for your hard work too! But what can i do more, i Can't write codes, but maybe I can donate money to you too, and do some some tests for you, and I know you will reply me by sending a thread link saying that i posted the thread for testing and no one helped me MUCH as Panker did! There are 2 reasons for that too, 1st reason : some people are not that much intelligent for testing, they just use it and directly post the result, they don't tells suggestions, 2nd reason : panker is very good in compression related work, he can tell the exact things for a compression, as i said above everyone have there own special skills.
