Thanks yener, somehow I missed that :D

Also, how do I convert to srep....

I need to move file over srep.exe, right or.....

A lot of THANKS to BAMsE.

I understand a lot now about compression.

But I'm sure I will have more questions :eek:

Cheers

EDIT:

When I try to compress pcf with srep I get .pcf.srep extension....What now, that is not good, right.

Is there any way to make a button on a autorun menu to browse a custom made folder (named Extras for example) on the disc? I like to put some extra stuff (soundtracks, wallpapers, etc.) on my custom made discs so it would be nice to be able to access them through autorun menu instead of going to the disc. Thanks in advance, yener ;)

Yes, not good. At all steps the filename should be the same, only extension should be different. Just rename output file to match the mentioned syntax. But... why do you want to use old precsrep method when CI supports merged (one step) precsrep? All you need you'll find here

NamelessOne good idea :)

Thank You again.

I've forgot to read that thread, maybe I was lazy because there is 60 pages, but will find time to read it For sure.

Thanks again, if I have another question will ask again, But will read first.

Regards

EDIT:

Forget to ask, it says that I need to put files......in one folder in setup.cab....

Name of that folder doesn't matter or I need to put it inside setup folder or what.

And about OUTPUT_ARCHIVE_NAME - it should be Data.cab, am I right....

BAMSE, how to compress videos.bik?
I have the program RAD Video Tools, but i dont know how to use. I want to compress the videos I am Alive.
It is easier to direct the program or bat file?

Newbie 20-10-2012 09:26

@kassane

What you mean "but I can not use right".....

Under Compression settings you have - compress to a % of the original.....

I use this usually.

And program batch also works fine.

Put them all together, no matter where, these files are needed to prepare strong compressed (precomp+srep+arc) archives. OUTPUT_ARCHIVE_NAME can be any string and it will be name of created archive. Just remember to edit setup.ini and add its name to [ExtractSettings] section

kassane just point to file you want to convert, use Bink it! button and set desirable options like %, width and height of output file

Compressing what? Or maybe uncompressing? What method of compress? Files version?

kassane 21-10-2012 06:01

I was compressing the files of the game, the bat file code:
Code:

arc a -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Data\Data1.cab -mprecomp:v+srep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8 "PATH TO BE COMPRESSED"
Then it happened ... What was the mistake?

BAMsE 21-10-2012 07:59

Probably wrong version of some compressor file or absence of arc.ini. You need arc.exe (0.67), precomp.exe plus its files (0.4.2), srep.exe (3.0) and arc.ini included in yener90's setup.cab. This ini must be placed in the root of your setup.cab too

This is my arc.ini
Code:

[External compressor:srep]
;options  = l%d (minimal match length, default=512)
header = 0
packcmd  = srep {options} -m3f $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = srep -d -s $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

[External compressor:precomp]
header = 0
packcmd  = precomp -intense0 -c- {options} -o$$arcpackedfile$$.tmp  $$arcdatafile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = precomp -o$$arcdatafile$$.tmp -r $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

kassane

First: don't quote previous post

Second: you need to add to your setup.ini the following line
Code:

[InstallOptions]
PrecompVer=inside

Should be OK

kassane 21-10-2012 13:53

yes, I added this line in setup.ini:
Code:

[InstallOptions]
PrecompVer=0.42

Because of this error occurs!
Code:

[InstallOptions]
PrecompVer=inside

And if you are disabled, another error that occurs is the SREP!
