you can use xtool, it should inflate from 37 to 43.1gb

Tried it already didn't deflate anything
Can you provide settings or maybe files used please?

setting for xtool
packcmd = xtool.exe e:precomp:c128mb,t4:zlib - - <stdin> <stdout>

the files are there and same settings used that's strange, i will redownload the files again.
Are you using x86 or x64 version of xtool and it's libraries?

x64,
as i said just use xtool with (zlibwapi.dll/raw2hif_dll.dll/hif2raw_dll.dll) better to remove other dll like (lz4.dll/lzo2...)

Already removed all other dlls and kept the ones you mentioned no gain, i've used xtool many times and it's working fine except this type of games that have *.pc_textures files :confused:

Seriously guys, what could be possibly wrong so xtool is not detecting any streams of the *.pc_textures files?

DS4ZLib nor GFS nor reflate stream detector detecting anything in this game.

But I have not tested.

like
--cache=0
[External compressor:xprecomp]
header = 0
packcmd = xtool.exe e:precomp:c128m,t4:zlib - - <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = xtool.exe d:precomp:t4 - - <stdin> <stdout>

Nothing changed sorry. :confused:
Can you make a test run using my compressor on a specific file of the game and provide the results and filename please?
