To use srep64
You do not need to edit arc.ini?

no just replace srep.exe with srep64.exe & rename it back to srep.exe

Razor12911 27-07-2015 13:03

Also make sure srep64's version is 3.91 beta or better. -m5f is not available in all srep versions, some have -m3f as the maximum.

SREP 3.93a beta (October 11, 2014)
This is the latest version?

Razor12911 27-07-2015 15:24

Yea, i think so, ultraarc uses that version, that is if I didn't forget to update it when I had a chance.

LuzhinE 27-07-2015 16:10

Please take a few minutes to update the 2 versions

update what?

LuzhinE 27-07-2015 16:26

to 64bits and SREP 3.93a beta

Razor12911 27-07-2015 16:37

Well if I had the source, I'd do that. srep can be updated to 3.93b, but the 64 bit part cannot be done. Just use the backdoor method to do that, replace srep.exe with srep64.exe. Copy, delete and rename. Do the same with the srep.exe from the installer.
I have to start ultra arc from scratch, which is no problem because I know how I created it the first time, but I do not have time nowadays.

LuzhinE 27-07-2015 16:49

So I copy and paste and rename

punchao 28-07-2015 04:57

We can also use precomp 0.43 with UltraArc?

Razor12911 28-07-2015 05:37

Yea, If you want, but don't ask me questions about errors and all that. You can sacrifice precomp042, update arc.ini, do the same with the installer. Replace precomp042 with precomp043.

SAM2712 28-07-2015 08:08

Any Suggestion..!
 
Razor.!
firstly Problem : When I use (UA_3030_30062015)..When I start procedure then nothing happens after waiting..but when I click on close then suddenly starts the process of conversion and complete successfuly AND UA close itself because I click on close button to start the process..! It does'nt happen with (UA_2400_30062015)

So , my config. in Both UA are same like : RUN AS ADMIN, Compat. with Win7, compression with freearc and Threshold 100 % (No matter I have enough space)

So , where is the problem in (UA_3030_30062015) or This problem in my pc but i don't think its in my pc as (UA_2400_30062015) is run well.

Second : Why there is difference in compression ratio in both UA version..I think (UA_2400_30062015) do slightly much compress..!

Please suggest..:(

Razor12911 28-07-2015 11:32

Well 3030 doesn't work because of operating system. It works on Windows 7 perfectly I think, although I tested it on Windows 8.1 from my PC and it still worked. Well I think the problem is still not clear.

The change compression ratio may be caused by lzma method change. Members wanted lzma to use more memory and that was the result. So yea, I gave members what they wanted, although I knew the side effects, I just didn't tell.

punchao 29-07-2015 00:44

for me 3030 work in w7,8.1 and 10

Razor12911 29-07-2015 02:25

Same here, I tested it on Win7, Win7 SP1 Win 8.1 and Win 8.1 Update 1. On 3 different PCs, with or without freearc installed. There was a problem like this in Installer Creator, all I did was make a 64-bit edition of it then it was fixed.

SAM2712 29-07-2015 06:37

Okk..!

Hey Hey ..! It works for me too this time..! :D
I installed win 8.1 Again and all window updates and It works without any problem.. OK But I want to tell that there is still good compression with (UA_2400_30062015) and COMPRESSOR v2.2.Means like 2% for ~4gb..It depends also on files but I am not saying this is better because of time (time is important) so in this fact (UA_3030_30062015) is much better..!
There is still one problem in compressor_After complete process there is still left (temp) folder.It should be delete after process....No problem because we use UA Mostly now..!
Otherwise ok..THNX RAZOR :)

Razor12911 29-07-2015 08:12

Thanks for the feedback with additional information.
@everyone, I am going to start the project from scratch.

klaroqsim 06-08-2015 17:47

if issues with 3030 version then use 2400 version
easier to use.

@Razor12911 Issues running 3030 ( see below image )

romulus_ut3 10-08-2015 10:07

An archive I packed with 2400 is saying a CRC32 mismatch when trying to extract a file. Is there a way to bypass the file with the failed CRC32 and extract the rest of the archive?

pakrat2k2 10-08-2015 11:10

just manually use freearc to open the file & extract it to temp folder.

romulus_ut3 10-08-2015 19:57

Since I used msc, lzma, delta, srep and stuff, FreeArc can be used to view the contents, but can't extract from it.

pakrat2k2 10-08-2015 21:08

unfortunately then the only way to redo it, is to reinstall original game. Then re-do the conversion & use only srep, delta, lzma, exe, exe2. I too have had issues using msc in the past & no longer use it at all. IF you still have original game installed, simply delete the archives created with UA & records.ini, change compression method like I mentioned and start over.

Help for Precomp..
 
Is there anyway to change the parameter of precomp from( -slow) to ( -fast) in ultraArc..? If yes then How..? Please Guide Me..:(

ShadowEagle 14-08-2015 05:15

Hi, using the following didn`t work:

1. UltraARC is on Drive C
2. Source Folder is on Drive C
3. Output Folder is on Drive C
4. Using PreComp

"Can`t copy ..." Is given after few mins.

There is enough space on the drive. Admin rights are given.

This works:

1. UltraARC is on Drive D
2. Source Folder is on Drive D
3. Output Folder is on Drive D
4. Using PreComp

Is there any way to get a solution? I want to use Drive C, because an SSD is much faster than a HDD.

Thanks in advance. Greetz

@Razor12911 Issues running 3030 ( see below image )

@pakrat2k2 I have a solution

the solution is to disable the antivirus and then open UltraArc 3030

IT WORKS FOR ME

pakrat2k2 25-08-2015 22:13

^Amsal, you actually think I hadn't thought of that ? LOL

Complete New OS install with all updates DX, VCredist Net Framework, etc & Still cannot run UA3030. That's why I still use 2400.

Amsal 05-09-2015 09:07

Listen @patkrat2k2

i found the problem, the problem is with antivirus (i have bitdefender total security 2015, i think you have this to).

Disable the Intrusion Detection and the antivirus too.

I have also the same problem. when i enable the intrusion detection then UA3030 will not open and give the error, but when disable the intrusion detection then UA3030 will open and works

pakrat2k2 05-09-2015 09:40

no I don't have that AV, & I have allowed it in my AV, processes & folder. Still cannot run it, even with AV OFF.

Hi
I split my game to 3 part! (data1a.cab , data1b.cab , data1c.cab)
your "Black_Box_ultraarc" installer will merge these 3 part to one part at Drive C {tmp}
I don't Want this to happen. I want to Merge these 3 part at {app}
so:
I changed "records.ini" and replaced {tmp} to {app}
the problem :
creating of new folder of {app} is after merging. so there is no {app} directory and merging will faild.
I want the installer to create that {app} directory automatically before merging.(if i create it Manually,it will work fine)
could u help me?
tnx

Razor has already stated he will rework UA, to extract to {app} rather then windows\temp. Just give him time to do so & he will update first post when its done.

pakrat2k2 20-09-2015 10:49

UltraARC has NOW been updated to use {app} rather then windows\temp.
Replace UltraARC.exe with UltraARC_mod.exe, choose either 2410 version or 3040 version.

Also CIU Versions 1006-2036 Have been updated in post #2, so please update to latest
version for your copies as well.

hey dou you have the complete ciuv2036 and dou you know

-whats is the diferences (setup.ini & InsttallerScrip.iss) between 2030 and 2036
-can i use 2030 or 2036 without Ultrarc

pakrat2k2 20-09-2015 17:22

NO those have been designed to use UltraARC. If you have 2030, then you have 2036
just replace the files.

mamed3000 21-09-2015 03:47

I can't compile CIU2036 or 2030 .... (tested with Inno Setup Enhanced Unicode)


How it works?! :confused:
