Samurai shodown Best compression Method
 

I think "ue4dt" would be the method but a decryption key is needed!
anyone can help please ! :)

AES Key

hi

Samurai shodown Best compression Method
 

used this for Compression :
ue4dt+srep:m3f+lolz:dtb1:d192m:mtt1:mt6:mc1023

sadly , i got no differences between "ue4dt" and "Xzlib" !
is there another better method , or did i something wrong?

Hi, everyone.

What's the best compression method for Unity engine games?

srep+lolz on everything.

Some unity asset bundles (inside StreamingAssets folder) can be compressed using XTool with unity engine plugin. Not all can be, so do check this first.

If there's any Wwise Audio (.wem /.bnk) or fmod banks (.bank) then use rz - I recommend MTX with RZ thanks to BLACKFIRE69. You won't get much compression out of these banks.

Obviously on bigger Unity games like Kerbal Space Program there's a lot more assets which can be compressed in different ways, but srep+lolz is the easiest method for Unity Games.

Well there are tools for banks and wems.

Educate me please, I know OGGRE_WWISE.EXE exists, but I've not managed to get it working.

Example: VGMToolbox. I think you just need some plugins for it to handle bank's, wem's and fsb's. Never worked with it for years now, and never got 100% into it, just because I really don't care :p

Edit: Maybe this helps you out a bit more. https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?t=15904

Samurai Shodown 2019
 

Original Size : 34.2 GB

Compressed Size : 17.6 GB

Install Time : 20 Minutes (Depends your system)

Method on Pak Files : ue4dt+srep+lolz
Others Files : xZLib+srep+lolz

AES Key : 0xDD65CE67FB67735547E32B3BB63FB97C6834EDCBA8359E7A E4CC1ADBCB9597B0

But that is extracting the audio, and I already knew about that. The point is being able to compress them efficiently - of which I don't think is possible without extensive work since the banks are already compressed.

BTW, no need for any toolbox, can extract fsb from bank using QuickBMS.

Thank you for the answer.

And what about UE4 and *.pak file? XT+srep+lolz?

Some games on UE4 have encrypt .pak files and need AES keys + UE4DT for decrypt. Then xt+srep+lolz

Hmm... That's interesting... How can I tell if the specific .pak file is encrypted?

If it compresses badly (or doesn't precompress into a larger size).

For honor?
 

Could someone tell me what's the best compression method applicable on FOR HONOR (.forge files)..

I am almost newbie, and can't find AFR method inside UltraArc GUI...

Thanks

you can use a batch(Pack.bat) file or Conversion Example for the compression with DiskSpan instead of UltraArc.... :rolleyes:

AO Tennis 2
 

Hi
Does anyone know of a good method for AO Tennis 2?

The game does not compress very well in it's retail state and doesn't use a common engine like Unreal Engine or Unity.

There's nothing that GFS can detect, so it's unlikely that precompression can be used here.

What do I do when oggre crashes?

Currently I have all of the ogg audio from the LEGO Harry Potter series, but it does not decompress properly, just crashes when attempting to install.

To be clear, there is no foreign stream, only ogg files. I only ever seem to have this issue with some LEGO games. Is there anything I can try to fix it?

Try to compress one by one. Maybe some OGG files are corrupted.
