Yes, you will get crc errors on some files.

Has anyone given "Sacred 3" a shot? I can't find much information about the engine used online, and no modding community exists (that I know of) to unpack the title's archives. level 9 zlib streams are present according to the "Game File Scanner" tool, however reflate/prelate have little effect (only able to find 10 streams). I'll try applying pzlib to see if that'll have any difference, I'll update in the coming days with results. If anyone would like a sample I'd be happy to upload it.

Yakuza 0 - Some Tests

.usm files when extracted, have no audio tracks to rip.
.cpk files when extracted, useless because it spawns 20,000 files of 20-50 KB's.
.Contains no streams at all, so you don't need to use a precompressor.

Overall, you can't rip anything out with the modding tools.

Most of you guys might have known about this but i still wanted to share it.

Edit : Upon testing, here are the results. GFS didn't detected any streams though.


Edit 2 : Nevermind, don't use a precompressor, i.e because i think only the one or two of above files contained streams and other files are either .usm or pck and some other extensions.

I tried bpk with the video files it always threw errors for me.

srep+lzma on movies only, srep+lolz on everything else.

Output size: 15 GB / 15.1 GB (I got 15.1 GB in the end because I had to split a file due to an error in decompression, but originally it was 15 GB.)

Side note: The movies take up 14 GB of the game, and the games entire size is 19.88 GB, so that's a lot for movies. They're .SFDs too, so there is barely any compression, which is why I advised to use LZMA instead of LOLZ, because it's much faster, and there isn't much a difference in size. You can split the .SFDs open to get the .m1v and .mp2 files with VGMtoolbox, so it's probably possible to re-encode the files, but I have no idea how to get past the 4000 kbps bitrate limit, when the raw m1v was 10000+kbps, nor do I know how to put them back together into an SFD.

UPDATE: it seems this error may have been brought on by my virtual machine's virtio storage drivers, and not the fault of software used for packing.

Has anyone given the "Attack on Titan" video-game series a shot? There are a fair few zlib streams, however attempting to use either xtool 2019 or 2020 always results in a "-1" error output (which I honestly have no clue what that error-code means) after all streams have been found.

I do have the game but too lazy to give it a shot xD

Attack on Titan 2 works fine with old xtool v12

Could you tell me which zstd library version you used?

I admire the honesty :D

KakTor,

The one that comes with 0.3.9 if i remember right.

Compare the results with this.

Grumpy,

"Honesty is the best policy" they say :P.

Yakuza Series and new updated GTA V version, ton of stuff coming but i need to pull myself together.

Do you have a small sample file for testing? :)

KaktoR,

Sure, will hook you up with the sample tonight.

i mean its almost evening here.

Here is the sample.

Sorry for the late.

Thanks.

can you please share guide how to rip audio languages for each one?

I have found all Language files including all Sound Files
for each language there are 161 sound files 250mb per language (Total 9 languages with english)
so it can be further reduced to 16GB total for one language.

I am Waiting for Zee to complete a tool that can automate the process since i do it by hand :P

feel free to share if any tool that can find a duplicate and replace with zero bytes exist

This is a really silly question but how do you find/calculate the blocks for a desired file? I'm trying to accomplish a similar feat with the earlier "Far Cry" titles & "The Settlers VII (7)", regarding their Bink videos.

I will try RE8 as soon as i get my hand on the game files.

panker1992 you did the same thing with RE3 and also managed to compress it effeciently.

Would love to see it as low as possible.

>Leethakor
I have demonstarted in the forum how to calculate and find the files and remove them!!
I have also posted a video on youtube personally that explains it with alo of details

> Sad8669
I am fixing Sound stuff from the game i am almost done.

I have managed to strip down many titles over my free time
Resident Evil 2 = 13.6 GB
Call of Cthulhu = 7.3 GB
Little Hope = 18.8GB same as Fitgirl but mine is better because the decompressed size from 55 GB is 35GB and yes its playable :D
Man of Medan = 17.8 GB same as above game is 30% down for decompressed size instead of 50GB its 30 and playable!!!
Biomuntant = 6.4GB this game is 25+ GB decompressed mine is 12GB decompressed and yes its playable!!!

Can you look into Yakuza 0 in your free time?

Fitgirl's version is : 11.7 GB
Mine is : 14.0 GB

The point is that, i know what Fitgirl has done to make it this small. She unpacked .par files which i also did and seen good results, but unlike sfk there isn't any tool to patch it back into the .par file to its original size.

It's just other information (if not discussed previously).

Resident Evil 8 Update + Sounds
 

The Total Compressed game is estimated to be 16GB no more !! will post once i pack it though
Completely Remove languages this game has total of 9 spoken languages so.
Also removing large portions of uncompressible files help with lolz - lolzi compression!!
Good Luck!!
PS. Take Extreme caution here can break the game if you dont know what you are doing - this is master dissection at it's best !!!
