zlib is very unstable, once successful, failed several times:(

xtool_1908_R3 X64 oodle Codec
Wolfenstein Youngblood ... chunkbase_9_pc.resources

oodle leviathan Stream Dont Work :o

They have custom chunks in there, no size in headers, so the decompressor should guess the right size, which is not a good idea :) Also it's slow af in Oodle 2.6.* .

- Could you upload a sample, I need to check something


Last time I checked the headers did contain size, it was a while ago but I didn't add support because no game used this codec back then

The problem was solved thanks to KaktoR.

"placeholders" :)

@Simorq:

Oodle is not inside xtool 2019 yet (they are only "placeholders" for later use). Only zlib and unity lz4 are inside.

Yes they are placeholders meant to be used by the plugins, they will get universal support eventually. But the plugins should give the best output since they are specific and not universal and as we know the universal tools I made (side projects) couldn't handle some games properly so I added placeholders to try and give the best precompression via plugins

@everyone, update was delayed. Because I noticed several issues in xtool thanks to Panker, FitGirl and of course you guys, plus I was busy making plugins for some games.

The changelog for next update

- Updated plugin support [DONE]
- Fixed plugin stream detection issues [DONE]
- Added delta/diff support for imperfect streams [0%]
- zlib codec renamed to deflate [DONE]
- Fixed several deflate related issues [DONE]
- Added png stream support [90%]
- Fixed future stream issues [DONE]
- Added low memory usage mode [0%]
- Added zstd universal stream support [DONE]
- Added lzo1x universal stream support (alpha) [DONE]

Plugins done so far:

haemimont, frostbite and anvil and updated unity plugin

This is looking good.

Many thanks Razor12911 !!!

When packing CS:GO vpk files, xtool 1908 R3 freezes when got to 5%.
Parameters: zlib,lz4:c32mb,t100p
However, there are no freezes on the xtool 1908 R2 version.

Remove lz4 from the parameters and try again.

Update available

1908_R4
- Updated plugin support
- Fixed plugin stream detection issues
- Added delta/diff support for imperfect streams
- zlib codec renamed to deflate
- Fixed several deflate related issues
- Added png stream support
- Fixed future stream issues
- Added low memory usage mode (slower)

Notes

If this update does not fix most issues then my PC crashing has really ruined the development of this project. :(
If you take a look at the change log, it says I renamed zlib codec to deflate, well the reason for that is because zlib codec will be reintroduced later on but it will be mostly use by plugins that find zlib streams in games so as a normal user, use deflate
