That's the command razor gave us, and it works just fine (except for the above^^)

each time razor releases a new version i will use it to repack a larger cpk game
i did with sonic forces because it is 16 gigs so its not too terribly large
it is the guinea pig lol

There you go :D

Decomp one will pop shortly

holy giant post panker lol

Just to let you know regarding my problem with xtool+diskspan.

It works actually, but i had to drag&drop the game folder 7 times actually (like spamming the folder into batch) before xtool starts working without windows problem reporting. It seems like a bug somewhere in batch, diskspan or even xtool, i don't know. Maybe my machine is the problem, but i had it only with xtool now.

Edit:
Have searched a bit, seems to be a problem with one of the vc redists, so i uninstalled them all, rebooted and reinstalled them one by one
The problem is only when i use diskspan with xtool. All other tools working just fine.

Edit 2:
Compatibility Mode for Win7 (xtool.exe) seems to fix this issue. Really strange.

Edit 3:
Ok no it's not fixed actually. After i arborted compression because of wrong lzma2, i fixed that and run again -> same problem as before.

Edit 4:
I've found the problem. If the pack data has folders + subfolders then xtool (or diskspan i dont know) stop working for some reason. But if i copy all files from all folders + subfolders into one single directory, then it works (it's the same size, but without any folders).

Edit 5:
My solution was now to just pick up some files and use your pack.bat from post #1, after it starts, wait some secs until xtool.exe starts working and then drag&drop game folder into diskspan bat and it works *facepalm* wtf

I think the problem here is xtool, because all other pre-/compressors working just fine with diskspan and whole game folders, but xtool doesn't. So?

Crilayla unfortunately doesn't work at all for me, on several files I tried, like this small one for example:
Attachment 21751
It create output file of 0 size and close immediately. I used x86 exe as dll is only for that version:

Your command is incorrect, use like this :-

Update available

Changelog:
v0.2:
- fixed x64 issues caused by compiler bugs
- slightly improved zlib/deflate scanner
- added entropy filter to fix reflate bug
- fixed MT zlib decoding bug

Notes:
There may be a few more bugs that still remain with regards to the zlib codec but if all is fixed then you guys should thank
I removed crilayla support on Naruto series, no tests conducted and I don't plan on downloading that game just to add a feature on a tool I don't use.

Works here

this is from the second release the first release inflated this file to over 4 gigs
the game is sonic lost world
this really did not do much at all

does not contain zlib that .cpk
.cpk crilayla or am I wrong?

Xtool v0.2 doesn't recompress streams from This War of Mine, but v0.1 does/

animations.dat - 20,6 MB (21 696 742 bytes)
v0.1
v0.2

^Did you test the decompression as well ?

Yep, decompression is ok with both versions.

Thanks Razor for keep doing tools that you don't use :)
can you add parameters to split threads like in ztool\pzlib?
st#: number of scanning threads
ct#: number of precompressing threads
normally using one thread for precompressing and multi for scanning gives less chance of an CRC errors

it is a .cpk file that inflated on the first release
going to try on something with just zlib later
when i get time

the t in the arc command stands for threads i believe it is t4 by default

xtool on batman arkham knight season of infamy dlc folder

xtool

ztool
identical end results but xtool precompressed these zlib files very noticably faster than ztool

would help if you upload the sample :confused:

with second release
after strong compression
using 0.1: 121 MB (127,517,813 bytes) >> 22.0 MB (23,120,406 bytes)
using 0.2: 120 MB (126,762,125 bytes) >> 21.4 MB (22,529,107 bytes)

interesting it isn't inflating at all on my side
i will do some troubleshooting

Release 2 Troubleshooting
 

alright seems to be in the arc.ini

in release 2 razor released the following command in the FA example

with it set this way it will ignore the crilayla streams


the solution is to replace zlib with crilayla in the packcmd and xtool begins to read the cri streams again i have tried adding it with zlib still there but it does not work.

example

sonic lost world after replacing zlib with crilayla in the arc ini in release 2
i came to this conclusion after sending a file to razor and it worked for him and his command
did not have zlib in it only crilayla

Here you are.

try these arc settings

i've found manually changing crilayla to zlib or zlib to crilayla
in the arc ini works depandant on what you are trying to precompress

Yep, with update 2 it works now. Thank you!

Yeah, my mistake, thanks.

i did the exact same thing lol
i gave the sample to razor after he posted the results
i felt stupid..lol prompting me to make the post above
for those who may make the same mistake..

XTool 0.2 32Bit has a problem.

use 16mb chunk size and try again

Good

But the extraction speed is less
Even when using XTool x64 to decompress.

the only thing i see wrong is the fact i have to manually type in zlib or crilayla
in the arc.ini packcmd it doesn't work if both are present only the one you are trying to precompress

@Razor12911

i ran into his same problem its just an arc.ini issue seems you can only have zlib or crilayla typed in one at a time wich explained why this worked on the FA example command
its with zlib being in the command it will target zlib with crilayla in the command it will target cpk but if you have both it will ignore both

ztool zlib vs xtool zlib with just zlib in the command

Bat

crashed with those settings

Works for me!

its most likley a corrupted runtime on my end... sometimes i have to do fresh installs or repairs
