SD Gundam Battle Alliance uses Oodle Kraken compression. Despite the fact the game does have a hexadecimal key, the UCAS / PAKs aren't encrypted so you can just use oo2reck:

Saints Row 2022

liblz4 1.9.3 was used.

Sometimes precompression aborts randomly, even with batch file with different arc.ini settings for -t and -c options (xdelta dll is in place). I don't know if it's a plugin or xtool problem or something else.

PS: --dbase parameter must be removed from xtool settings

Precompression was fine for me (liblz4 v1.9.2, no XDelta DLL present), precomp and decode was flawless.

Thanks, maybe it was either the xdelta dll or lz4 library.

I will investigate further.

PS: What -t and -c settings you used for xtool?

Edit: Same error happens randomly

liblz4 1.9.2
no xdelta dll
-t100p -c32mb
no --dbase parameter

Well without xdelta dll ratio is always 100%

However I will leave this here just in case :D

Whoops, I figured out I have xdelta injected into my XTool.exe and forgot.

My mistake. Apologies.

Hello

is the method you use compatible with every Unity Engine games ?

DiskSpan GUI the method you used in the example can I use ?

How to compress Destroy All Humans! 2 ? Is it encrypted ?

oodle kraken is your way

Use oodle library 8
Edit: I made something wrong previously ^^

With xtl database

kraken oodle 7

Please send me the library. I have two different oo7 libraries and none of them are giving this ratio :D

Can you share batch file and arc.ini please ?

Use the files from xtool. Thats what I use for my tests

IMMORTALITY
Someone knows if bk2's are good with binkpack? I mean, it's 95% of the games size.

@KaktoR binkpack will compress just fine BUT it will NOT decompress with out errors..
so no it doesnt work

Hello
KaktoR

Destroy All Humans 2 Reprobed on the recommendation of the compression method
( dah2r.xtl / oo2core_7_win64.dll ) for convenient transportation and use DiskSpan_GUI is it possible to harmonize ?

thank you for your help in advance

Considering the almost three-hour installation - such an occupation

Yes, it's not worth it at all tbh.

Hello, how can I use HdiffPatch on Cyberpunk 2077 bink files? I've searched into website, but no concrete example, no concrete instruction. Can anyone help me? Thank you!

I still had a backup with oo2recm. This time I used xtool anvil plugin to compare the full size. The size is almost the same (oo2recm is ~50mb smaller), but xtool anvil plugin is much faster (~7hrs vs 4hrs). I leave it here just for information on full sizes instead of just samples.

PS: I will do the same for Odyssey and Valhalla soon.

Thank you for your reply! I've used hdiffz.exe and, thank to your instructions, it works! What I don't understand is the pro of all of this. Let me better explain: I use hdiffz.exe to avoid CRC error when I decompress .bik and .bk2 files, but I have no advantages in terms of compression, since I have to use temp file and diff file to create the original .bik and .bk2 file.
I thought that I had to use compressed file (bpk file) to create the original one, but as far as I can see, this file is not used at all.
Is there anything i don't understand?

Of course you have to use compressed bink file + diff file to restore the original file.

bink_unpack.exe will fail on decompressing the compressed bink file, but file remains.

Then you use the diff file to patch the decompressed bink file back to original.

In the example above, you have to include BPK2 files and Bink2DIFF files.

Jojo's bizarre adventure: All-star battle r
 

Recently the title in question got an official PC-port, as it was originally a PS3 exclusive. The compression is, in theory fairly easy to decipher, as it's just Crilayla, however all the assets in their relevant ".cpk" archives are encrypted, the algorithm seems to be the same from a glance however some archives aren't original, so its not clear if a different or multiple private keys were used/replaced.

Attached is the only semi-working (QuickBMS) script I can find (source) that can sort of process some data but falls short very quickly. I'm not very adept at QuickBMS scripting but my guess is the encryption key is incorrect.

I have also attached a sample for anyone interested. For those curious current gains are only ~200MB with the encrypted archives.

You can extract the encrypted data using CriPack Browser v6.7. As for decryption, it's clearly not an XOR implementation like what was seen in Super Robot Wars 30 as all the files are different.
