Is there any ui-based interface that I can use to input the commands?

i just used the same files located in xtool 0.4.2
and here are my pics

Attachment 31263
It compressed just fine with no errors

Attachment 31264
here are the files for xtool 0.4.2 as you can see it created a freearc1.tmp file

Attachment 31265
here are the files that i was test packing

my arc.ini is
[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

my pack.bat file is
arc.exe a -ep1 -r -ed -s; -w.\temp -mxtool+srep+lolz data.bin "pack\*"

I doubt that's the issue, @ScOOt3r only uses zlib related codecs however he has an issue of his own (might be related)

@seryogakms, @ScOOt3r

I'll take a look at it but it will be challenge because I am not experiencing any of the issues you're reporting.

When using Knight Compressor, it uses too much DLL files that made it crash. But, I deleted some to make it work. Multiple files work but not Unity.

Apologies for criticising your zlib+kraken method, I have tested out a new game which contains both. Sorry. Hope you can forgive.

@seryogakms, @ScOOt3r
can you try this configuration, if xtool throws any errors please post the error message here

ok after testing it i now get this error

if i do a clean install of xtool 0.4.1 with no library files added i get this

it creates the data.arc with this xtool setting, but it wont decompress with out errors.


[External compressor:xtool]
header = 0
packcmd = xtool.exe precomp { -moption} -c32mb -t100p $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = xtool.exe decode -t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>

can you share this input along with your system specs?

My System Specs are as follows:
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
16 Cores
32 Logical Processors
64 GB of Ram
NVIDIA GeForce RTX3090 GPU

i had the same Disk Full issue, remove libzstd.dll and it will work.

It's all right!

ScOOt3r,
this is ISDone right? how about the unpack.bat? you get the same error?

well i got it working compressing and decompression as someone posted above to remove libzstd.dll.. i did that and it works just fine now.. weird that it was that file
not sure how important libzstd.dll is...
