Compression level 4 is 7-Zip ultra compression

hi can fix this mode ? the ultra compression not working , i think because ultraarc using 32bit of 7zip which not support more than 4gb ram , my self got 16gb ram installed .

pakrat2k2 15-10-2015 09:47

it does work, make sure all your settings are correct on each tab before pressing start.

Had the same error, but only while using precomp. It still helps to have the UltraARC folder on not OS partition. Don`t know why.

Hope it will help you.

Cheers

Would be great to use several UltraARC instances at once. Parallel compressing i mean.

No answer? :(

@ShadowEagle

modify the skin of self extracting exe in UltraARC? Would be very important for me.

Slap your name on it as its your creation, from some of the installers Ive seen from you, use how its provided or create your own.

Several Instances at once, not possible.

ShadowEagle 23-10-2015 01:45

Yes, you`ve seen that? Can not be, because my installers are creations of my own using CIU from Yener. So i`m wondering why you did wrote that. If skinning is possible i`ll credit the creator.

I thought I did answer your question (probably the forum thought I was spamming), well none of you asked is possible, one because I don't have source and two, Parallel compression isn't possible, even when you're running cmd compression the ultra arc, I designed it such a way that if you run two processes, information will clash which will cause errors so i had to avoid that.

Ahh, ok, i do understand. Thanks for your answer. I will try it with two users on the server. Maybe i can start two processes, each for one user. I will give feedback here.

gatosky1620 23-10-2015 13:50

razor can you add compress option without split example:

Setup-1a.bin, Setup-1b.bin, setup-1c.bin,setup-2a.bin, etc like internal compression

So far, records.ini is embedded on setup.exe (That is if the setup is created with ASC). There are going to be two methods of using the new conversion tool. Splitting and Non-Splitting method. If you got a lot of metal in circular form lying around then non-splitting method is the way to go but if your pockets are filled with oxygen then splitting method is the way to go.
Consider this scenario If
data1.bin = 3.2GB
data2.bin = 1.7GB
data3.bin = 2.0GB
data4.bin = 1.5GB
with splitting method this is what happens:
data1.bin(3.2GB) and part of data2.bin(1.1GB) are going to fit in DVD1.
The other part of data2.bin(600MB) will go in DVD2 along with data3.bin(2.0GB) and data4.bin(1.5GB)
To make:
DVD1 = 4.3GB
DVD2 = 4.1GB
without splitting method this is what happens:
data1.bin(3.2GB) is going to fit in DVD1.
data2.bin(1.7GB) is going to fit in DVD2(it can’t fit in one because there’ll be an overload) along with data3.bin(2.0GB).
data4.bin(1.5GB) will going in DVD3.
To make:
DVD1 = 3.2GB
DVD2 = 3.7GB
DVD3 = 1.5GB
Same output but different number of DVDs, most would go for the splitting method but there is a catch, the splitting method needs additional space when compressing and when decompressing, this means more time is needed.


records.ini for setup made with Inno Setup will still be near the exe, the reason for this is that I can't make it work like the one for ASC else the exe becomes corrupt.

Razor pls can you integrate password option into UltraARC?

Yeah razor please add it!

Razor12911 03-12-2015 16:16

what's the point of putting passwords because records.ini is right there, people will simply just look at that.

What he said, and also i would prefer he spend more time on improving UltraArc splitting so that finally it is accurate.

Like he said:

(with splitting method this is what happens:

Bro, I use UltraArc with installer creator, and it doesn't need the records.ini for installation(as you already know) and bro I will make password archives from ultraarc and then type the password in the Installer Creator. So there will be password feature also, if anyone wants to use then he can use like ME! Razor12911 please do it, I request you

Razor12911 03-12-2015 17:42

So, you are creating archives indirectly by using UltraARC, meaning you are misusing the program therefore I cannot add the request because UltraARC isn't only used only by Installer Creator, it is also used by CI, CIU RG Mechanics and other variants compatible with the program, I even created a separate compressing tool for called Compressor v2, it has the password feature and is compatible with Installer Creator.

Yeah I know bro, but bro, can you make a simple mod/update for the ultraArc which is with the password, so who want the password method can use it, and bro and who use CI, CIU, RG Mechanics other variants can use the last version! So it will be better, but I am only requesting and nothing more can I do, And bro Compressor v2 doesn't give mm and ppmd etc. compressions

ShadowEagle 04-12-2015 01:44

Requesting too. I`m using UltraARC with CIU2 for my hundreds of repacks. I love this tool for it`s simplicity. Pls Razor, implent that feature for us - it would be like a christmas gift for us :)

Maybe it`s possible integrate password into ini or config file so you don`t have to code?

romulus_ut3 04-12-2015 23:15

A very n00b question.

Is there anyway to automate batch processing/archiving? For example I would like to have Ultra Arc compress Four different sources one after another, instead of having to specify just one source each at a time?

Would this be for a Compilation of games into one installer?
IE: Kings Quest 1, Kings Quest 2, Kings Quest 3, Kings Quest 4
All installed into main folder Sierra ( just made up names to give idea )

if so then choose on the conditions tab 1 source per line
also need to set components in ISS script as well.
