Welcome back, thank you for the update. Merry Christmas! :D

Thanks Razor! Please can you write a list of games that are compatible with that lz4f scanner? For example is it for new or old unity games?

the xtool has an xtool.ini with xcompress.exe and crilayla.exe where can i find those ?

I think they are coming soon.

Update available

Changes

- project made open source
- added external executable support
- added generate database feature
- fixed search support bug

Notes

The source code will be made available on GitHub
https://github.com/Razor12911/xtool

External executable support is still in development and not thoroughly tested and below shows how it is used within xtool.ini

possible constants: <stdin> <stdout> <filein> <fileout> <fileres> <filestore> <size>

Update available

Changes

- fixed issue of status not reporting when encoding
- added depth method support for search support
- fixed zlib encoding issues for different window bits (thanks KaktoR)
- fixed zlib memory leak issue (thanks KaktoR)
- updated all internal codecs to support information relayed by external codecs
- updated lz4f codec and removed temporarily removed support for universal scanning
- added option to change recompression level to be used by reflate
- updated external executable support
- generate database feature currently bugged, wait for next update
- search database structure changed, older database files will no longer work with newer releases

Notes

Older database files will not work with future updates, use the older version 0.3.21 for old database files as you wait for them to be updated
A temp file may be created when using database files which can be the size of the largest file in the data to be processed.

how come I can't open the xtool.exe?
 

I'm in win11.

im curious, if you can now select a reflate level what does it do as standard? maybe set to 6 as as default?

Xtool isn't used directly, look at test example or the Freearc example to see how it works.

The idea of reflate is by selecting the correct level you get the best result. You can perform trial and error on an input by trying out different levels and the best one is the one that gives the least output. Default is level 6

Update available

Changes

- removed debugging code from encryption and executable codec
- fixed issue with depth when using search codec
- fixed external executable support issues

Im trying to understand the commands for xtool_0.4.2

my arc.ini file is this

[External compressor:xtool]
header = 0
packcmd = xtool.exe precomp -mzlib+preflate -c32mb -t85p - - <stdin> <stdout>

[External compressor:lolz]
header = 0
packcmd = lolz\lolz_x64.exe -d256 -dt -dtb1 -mtt1 -mt14 -fba1024 -tt5 -mc128 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

[External compressor:srep]
header = 0
packcmd = srep\srep.exe -m3f -l512 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

and the pack.bat file is this
del /q data.bin
arc.exe a -ep1 -r -ed -s; -w.\temp -mxtool+srep+lolz data.bin "pack\*"
pause

it creates a freearc1.tmp file only and not a .bin file
what am i doing wrong with this.

Thanks

try removing all plugins (xtl and ini) files near xtool, they may be causing it to crash and try again.

ERROR: write error (disk full?) in compression algorithm xtool

arc.ini

unpackcmd = xtool.exe decode -t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>

cmd:
arc.exe a -ep1 -r -ed -s; -i2 -w.\temp -mxtool+srep+lolz Packs\data.bin "data\*"

With xtool_0.3.9 there is no such problem.

What could be the problem?

Thank you in advance.

I did try and remove all .xtl and .ini files and same thing.. just a freearc1.tmp was created only

zlib+kraken? :confused:
