Note: Even though it appears to not have compressed at all, the difference is in the install time. the original took 10 minutes to install on my quad core desktop but my repack install only took 2-3 minutes at most. So no compression difference but much faster installer time.

*If you all are wondering what I mean by '#-folder' in my compression methods, i will let you all in on a little secret. If you're dealing with
a game with lots of small individual files and/or file types, such as .mov, .bik. mp4, in terms of movies, and files like .cpi from Far Cry, it is a lot more time
effecient to split the game install folder up into individual folders. Like with the game Echo for example, I put all the highly compressable files in one folder and the .mp4 cutscene
videos in a seperate folder. that way when compression time comes around, i can compress the high comp ratio files with one particular compressor and then just do a bare minimum compression on the movie files. your repack results may vary from file type to file type. just thought i'd clear this up and give a bit of insight on how i do things.*

Newbie trying to get how compression/conversion works.

I'm trying to apply this over my Sekiro clean files.

When I choose the custom compression provided by KaktoR (bpk+oo2reck+srep:m3f+LZMA-MT) the process starts but the estimated time only goes up.

I started it about 30 minutos ago and it's only 4% processed at the moment.

What am I doing wrong?

My CPU is a Ryzen 2600 @4ghz, well cooled. RAM works @3200mhz CL16, if that matters.

Thanks beforehand

oo2reck take some time. It's finished on 10% (like most precompressors), then srep should start.

Does BPK lower video quality on Bik/BK2 files? I can't seem to find a definite answer. It really helps with those file types, but no so if the compresion is lossy. Edit: forgot to mention I'm looking at Ghost Recon Wildlands, devil mentioned that they chose not to use BPK and I was wondering if there was any undesireable effects of using it.

BPK does not lower the quality.

Simple answer: Compare file hashes.

Would anyone be so kind to share with me complete XTOOL (including all "plugins"), haven`t compressed anything for sooo long :P and I am completely lost rn of what exactly to search for, so many threads, and so many tools :D

Thx in advance!!!

XTool
 

Hello friend, I have whipped this config up for you very quick, so please give a good test :)

All plugins for x86/x64 (+ game engine plugins) are all included.

Compression methods are listed in Arc.ini, use _PACK.ME.bat to pack.

Many thanks to RAZOR19211 for the fantastic tool!

I'm having a small issue when trying to compress Imperator Rome. The assets aren't packed, and most are .dds or .bmp images.

Because of this, I'm using the following method:

With the following "masks" (Is that what you call them - in arc.groups):

However I always seem to get this error when using MSC:

https://i.ibb.co/Wc5ZZ5w/Captfure.png

This happens every time I use MSC and BMF, I can always use TAK without error. I tried dropping lolz and using just msc+srep but still I can't manage to fix this. MSC does report that there was an error creating a .bmf file (temporary file) but I don't know if these two problems are linked. If anyone knows a little bit more about MSC, I'd greatly appreciate some help. Thanks in advance!
