Hello, I've been experimenting for a few days now to figure out the best method to compress my data to the smallest size possible.

So far this is the best combination I have found:
precomp_mtx+srep_new+LOLZ_ULTRA

Anyone suggests a better method for an even smaller size?

UPDATE:
The method below reduced the size significantly more than the one mentioned above.

xtool:mreflate,l6+srep_new+LOLZ_ULTRA

Hi everyone, I have a problem with diskspan gui, every time I try to compress the archive files of cyberpunk 2077 with srep + LOLZ_NORMAL, at the end of the conversion I get this error so it fails and the archive is damaged. I tried 2 times but I always get the same error, how can I fix it? is there any way to repair the built archive without attempting the conversion again?

It depends on input data.

Do you use Win11? Try with compatibility mode (for Diskspan_Gui.exe and lolz.exe).
Try disabling your AV during the process (escpecially the "real time protection")
Try with a sample file instead of taking the whole game folder.
Try with lzma instead of lolz.

Tigru 10-03-2022 08:02
Anyone knows weather all the compressors in DiskSpan GUI are lossless?

KaktoR 10-03-2022 08:05
Yes, all of them are lossless.

Regarding input data, is there a way to know which is used for what data?

Yes, take a sample from the game and use game file scanner to check which compression algorithm is used namely lz4,zlib,zstd etc.
and if the game directory has an oodle library, such as oo2core_x_win64.dll then use oodle scanner to check which member of oodle family is used.

for audio files WAV,MP3 use MSC. or MPZ
for BINK files use bpk
and so on

You will get used to it, give it some time.

hello, I have a problem with DSG and the plugin for the game ELDEN RING I load the plugin, I choose the directory where there is the game, I start the compression. everything goes well, but when i try to install the game, i get an error message.

Yeah I'm still quite new at all of this but I find it quite fascinating.

What game file scanner should I use? Is it some software I have to get or is it something online?

I am really sorry for replying this late, i was on holiday.

check it out here.

as for oodle scanner, check Razor's Oodle Precompressor (Side Project) Thread you will find it with the attachments.

No problem at all, I definitely appreciate the help, I will check it out as soon as I have some time available.

I hope you had a nice holiday! :)

Hi, I need a little help editing DiskSpan Gui to include PMT to precomp/razor. I was able to get it to compress but always get a decompression error.
Razor mtx is included with the base DiskSpan Gui, but I always get a decompression error with using that and I am not sure if Precomp mtx also have that problem too. Thanks.

DiskSpan GUI v2.0.0.9
 
Updated DiskSpan GUI to v2.0.0.9 in the first post.
Special thanks to @KaktoR for all the work testing compressions and creating the DiskSpan GUI database settings.
Code:
Changes:
- Updated XTool plugin Unreal Engine (R6)
- Updated XTool plugin EA Frostbite Engine (R7)
- Updated QuickBMS to XTool from v0.3.1 to v0.3.2
- Updated XTool precompressor from v0.4.2 to v0.4.8
- Updated key list for Unreal Engine games (with some news keys).
- Updated database maker "Unreal Engine ucas Database maker (R4)".
- Updated DiskSpan GUI database to version 1.0.4.1 (Thanks to KaktoR).
- Updated compressor/decompressor "ZStandard" (ZSTD) from v1.5.1 to v1.5.2
- Added some XTool Bms2xtl (QuickBMS) plugins for some others games.
- Added external file DSG_External.ini to include methods without having to change DSG_Methods.ini file.
- Added XMemCompress (R2), LZ4X (R1) and Crilayla (R1) tools to work together with Bms2xtl (QuickBMS to XTool).
- Added new checkbox to enable copying DiskSpan GUI executable to first media folder if setup files do not exist.
- Added support for 3 new configuration keys in Database.ini, but the content of these keys can only be manually edited in Database.ini.
  >> The key content supports the same equivalent commands supported in DSG_Methods.ini but cannot use the {compressor} and {parametter} constants, the new supported keys below:
  >> Data#.Backup#=<create backup of compressors library before compression, the file is restored after compression>
  >> Data#.CopyLib#=<copy library to compressor folder before compression, the file is delete after compression>
  >> Data#.Decomp#=<include library to creation of the Setup DLL file>
- Fixed some bugs found.

Hello, I tried to compress Death Stranding Director's Cut with the preset in DiskSpan GUI but I get error on srep.

ERROR: general (de)compression error in srep

Any help would be appreciated.

Use this srep version
https://fileforums.com/showpost.php?...postcount=2927

replace srep.exe in "Resources\OTHERS\SREP" and try again.

If you follow the quotes you will find out that I had the same error and with provided srep version it worked.

I have a question about unpacking.
When my compression of Cyberdimension Neptunia Four Goddess Online was successful and I tried the unpacking option right after merging the ini, this happened:

I compared the size of the two files and it is smaller so I thought there was a problem with the compression. I tried unpacking with the dsg.exe and the unpacking was sucessful. Those gibberish words didn't show up and the files size were similar.

There's a bug in FreeArc which redirects output from STDIO tools to console window. What you are seeing isn't gibberish, but actual data.

DiskSpan GUI v2.0.1.0
 
Updated DiskSpan GUI to v2.0.1.0 in the first post.
Special thanks to @KaktoR for all the work testing compressions and creating the DiskSpan GUI database settings.
Code:
Changes:
- Updated XTool plugin Unity Engine (R2)".
- Updated XTool precompressor from v0.4.8 to v0.5.3
  >> XTool has removed support to grittibanzli codec.
- Updated database maker "Dunia/Disrupt Engine Database maker (R4)".
- Updated DiskSpan GUI database to version 1.0.4.6 (Thanks to KaktoR).
- Added new Edit in "Developer Mode" to support load independent DSG_External.ini file for each game from the DiskSpan GUI database.
- Added new checkbox in "Developer Mode" to run CallBefore file before starting compression and CallAfter after file only after finishing compression.
- Added file list creation for each "Records.ini" file section allowing to create a custom uninstall or for other purposes (see ISDone script Example).
  >> The list files will be included in the "Setup DLL" file which will be in the installer's temporary folder during the installation process.
  >> The list is generated with all the filenames compressed in each "Data" file, allowing you to recreate the list depending on the selected language or task options during installation.
- Added "Apply XDelta Patch" checkbox on the unpacker tab of the tools group (Tools button).
  >> If you uncheck this option and it contains an XDelta patch it will not be applied during extraction.
- Added new XTool plugin "Age of Empires III Definitive Edition" created by Edison007.
- Fixed some bugs found and several parts of the DSG code was redone in order to correct errors.
READ: I ask everyone who uses DiskSpan GUI when using a plugin to download the plugin in DEVELOPER mode and share after downloading, this way the plugin will already be in the DiskSpan GUI folder avoiding version incompatibility errors if the plugin is updated in the future.
Currently the plugin "Ubisoft Dunia 2 Engine" and "Unity Engine" have been updated in the googledrive for compatibility with the current XTool included in DiskSpan GUI 2.0.1.0, so using DiskSpan GUI 2.0.0.9 and downloading these plugins will not work .

Hi Cesar82, thanks for helping me yesterday...

I want to ask again what compression method is the best

So far I'm using [1] Srep + Lzma I'm compressing a 200 mb file to 60 mb but last night I compressed WWE 2K22 with 10 Hours only cut very little from 49.8 GB to 49.3 GB

I read on the internet every game has a different compression method.. Do you know what the difference is?

fabrieunko 28-05-2022 22:11
hello, when I download the scripts I have an error when it happens to Middle earth shadow of war^

this seems to have been corrected, I redid an update later..

So far I'm using [1] Srep + Lzma I'm compressing a 200 mb file to 60 mb but last night I compressed WWE 2K22 with 10 Hours only cut very little from 49.8 GB to 49.3 GB

I read on the internet every game has a different compression method.. Do you know what the difference is?
Next time ask such questions about compression in this topic: https://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=99554

I don't have the game nor any game file samples, but did a quick check on steamdb and found a "oo2core_9_win64.dll" file, so I assume this game use oodle compression. Check with oo2rec precompressor (select "k9", "m9" or "s9") and take a sample file from the game and see if the output will get bigger then the input.

srep.exe was not found and I've checked myself, it's not there..

Is it really like that? because the previous version of srep.exe exists

Special thanks to @KaktoR for all the work testing compressions and creating the DiskSpan GUI database settings.
Code:
Changes:
- Updated XTool plugin Unity Engine (R2)".
- Updated XTool precompressor from v0.4.8 to v0.5.3
  >> XTool has removed support to grittibanzli codec.
- Updated database maker "Dunia/Disrupt Engine Database maker (R4)".
- Updated DiskSpan GUI database to version 1.0.4.6 (Thanks to KaktoR).
- Added new Edit in "Developer Mode" to support load independent DSG_External.ini file for each game from the DiskSpan GUI database.
- Added new checkbox in "Developer Mode" to run CallBefore file before starting compression and CallAfter after file only after finishing compression.
- Added file list creation for each "Records.ini" file section allowing to create a custom uninstall or for other purposes (see ISDone script Example).
  >> The list files will be included in the "Setup DLL" file which will be in the installer's temporary folder during the installation process.
  >> The list is generated with all the filenames compressed in each "Data" file, allowing you to recreate the list depending on the selected language or task options during installation.
- Added "Apply XDelta Patch" checkbox on the unpacker tab of the tools group (Tools button).
  >> If you uncheck this option and it contains an XDelta patch it will not be applied during extraction.
- Added new XTool plugin "Age of Empires III Definitive Edition" created by Edison007.
- Fixed some bugs found and several parts of the DSG code was redone in order to correct errors.
READ: I ask everyone who uses DiskSpan GUI when using a plugin to download the plugin in DEVELOPER mode and share after downloading, this way the plugin will already be in the DiskSpan GUI folder avoiding version incompatibility errors if the plugin is updated in the future.
Currently the plugin "Ubisoft Dunia 2 Engine" and "Unity Engine" have been updated in the googledrive for compatibility with the current XTool included in DiskSpan GUI 2.0.1.0, so using DiskSpan GUI 2.0.0.9 and downloading these plugins will not work .
I think I found a Bug today i Compress the Conversion Max Payne 3
and at Finishing it Looks like That

Srep.exe is there like it should be. Maybe you or your AV deleted it by accident

I noticed after I uploaded DSG that two of the plugins ("Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance" and "Sonic Forces") are offering download options, but they shouldn't.
I don't have this game to generate the .xtl file (From the complete folder with all files), so the option to generate the .xtl database during compression was added (It shouldn't show in the download list, because the download list is only for .xtl databases).
Code:
For Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance use:
xtool:c32mb:mmgrr:1

For Sonic Forces use:
xtool:c32mb:msonicf:1

This error does not affect functionality. I'll fix it to not display this message.
It just indicates that srep.exe cannot be deleted (didn't exist) before copying one of the executables (srep_3.92.exe or srep_3.93a.exe) to srep.exe.

EDIT:
Updated DiskSpan GUI in the first post.
I think all reported bugs have been fixed.
I ask those who downloaded the previous version to delete it and download the updated version.

EDIT:
Attached HOTFIX 2 to DiskSpan GUI 2.0.1.0 (replace).
- Fix error when copying required libraries in some methods (Thanks to KaktoR for reporting the bug).
- Fix srep method error after first arc file when used in more than one arc file in the same game (Thanks to KaktoR for reporting the bug).

100% cpu usage

Can CPU usage be limited?

Change affinity in Task Manager for that process or use process lasso.

This error has happened randomly to me, however I haven't found out what causes it.
Maybe it has something to do with GDI because the same error happens if you try to use the botva2.dll library in windows or panels with different handles (Botva2 uses GDI), so if anyone has any hints as to what could cause this type of error inform me.
