thanks work fine windows 8 x64 bits - in spanish language! and all updates included

Sadly it doesn't work for me! ........

what's the prob?

don't know its stuck on 13.2 for 5 hrs.....
see post #13 for more info:(

I think precomp freezed.
Maybe your system is infected.
What are your system specs.

Pentium Dual Core E5200 " 2.50 GHz

2 GB DDR 2 RAM

Windows 8 pro x64 bit

320 GB HDD

It works previously but the prob. started with far cry 3......
also I have fully updated Eset Smart security and my computer is running perfectly and no problem,no virus......

The problem is M$ Windows phone 8, remove this bullshit from your pc! :D

lol.....fine I get it....come to think of it I usually done everything on Windows XP before....except Far cry 3 and this one cause Win XP gives some memory error......

btw its says sth. like this in win 8-

You can speed up Precomp for THIS FILE with these parameters :
-z148,81 -d0

ques. is where to add these parameters?:confused: also will it help in win 8 somehow,cause i have this windows only for next 4 months as I am low on budget........buyed it in discount period.

Hi. Sorry to revive an old thread but finally got around backing up my installation and after compressing and trying the installer it gives me extraction error on the third archive (every single time. only once the error appeared in the second archive).

The only difference I made was making it 2 audio languages (Eng and Ita) but that doesn't explain the problem since language files is compressed in the second archive, not third (which contain only the binaries)

Oh, and my system is PhenomX4 with 4GB RAM
thanks in advance

read posts #7 & #9 for more then 1 language ?

First: I do not have survival edition. Never said I have.
Second: As I mentioned CAREFULLY in my previous post, the error happens during extraction of third archive, which have nothing to do with the game being 2 Audio langs or single lang.

I ask you simple question & BITCH back at me like that.. fix your own issue !

What error you got?
More details about error...

Hi Peter1999. Welcome back.
sorry it took me a while to respond. I had to recreate the error with original arc.exe, precomp and srep EXEs which you provided in your conversion so I deleted existing archives and started from scratch. I even UNINSTALLED FreeArc to make sure the commands are called from the conversion directory and not from FreeArc PF path

here is some more details.

available free memory: 2.8GB of 4GB
no Antivirus programs are installed
x64 OS installed (Windows 7 and Windows 8.1, tried both)

Extracting Data3.bin ...

Current file:

Elapsed: 19 mins Remaining: --

error message:

(!)ISDone.dll

An error occured when unpacking!
Unarc.dll returned an error code: -1
ERORR: archive data corrupted (decompression fails)


(Not a single file of Data3.bin has been unpacked, starting with TombRaider.exe which returns 0kb size)

Hope you can fix it for anyone else having this issue. I know it won't be me.

As for me, I don't want help anymore. I'm not staying and being insulted by some kid. I tried to do the right thing and reported his post, but I guess now I know that forum moderators are invincible, so they can harass forum members as they like instead of, ummm let me see, helping them?

My message is not edited, and if I don't like this place then no one's forcing me to stay here so it is settled, I'm leaving this forum FOR GOOD and never returning, I'm even deleting my account.

whatever message is going to be posted in reply to me, I won't read it. and that certain moderator perfectly knows this, but he's going to post it anyway, playing innocent and defending himself. maybe some profanity too.

I never insult anyone on any online forum , and if there is someone to thank for that it's Tippix. I learned that to deal with whoever flexes his muscles and try to be a smart mouth, I do not have to stoop to their level.

I've met some really interesting people in here, learned a lot. Also met some really rude people too.

To the forum members who never spared an expense in helping other members, thank you. To the rest, I feel sorry for you.

cheers and a happy new year :)

The error message is clear: the archive is corrupted.

Try to test the archive integrity with arc.exe itself, type from conversion folder:

and then re-create the archive if it still corrupted.

The image below shows the result of archive integrity of my Data3.bin:

You can also remove Precomp from compression chain (remove the letters & symbols in red) , modifying the batch as follow:

Happy new year to you too :)
