Sometimes srep also gives crc error during decompression. Try srep 3.92 instead of 3.93.

the file which is giving u crc error. try only xtool on it and decompress it(see what u get)

I was using cls-srep (it's srep 3.93a) and xtool 0.9. This srep was working with ztool.
For decompression I'm using this, not the one above...: unpackcmd = xtool.exe d:precomp:t4 - - <stdin> <stdout>

@Ahmad: the installer is not even giving a crc error. It's just stuck. I have the same problem with the whole folder compressed. srep64 and xtool are still in the working processes.
Maybe I'm going to try with smaller files. In both cases it's stuck with the biggest file (imagefile92.pak).

Tested with a smaller file (25mb)...decompression worked.

my scenario for the s&p 500: a big fall. Sell everything.

Never mind, I was planning to delete codaw anyway. I prefer keeping smaller games. And in this one, it seems no files can be deleted.

When u r debugging some bug u r supposed to check individual files. BTW, the cls srep u r using doesnt only work for srep 3.93. it works with all sreps. The reason i told u this is becase i have experianced this with afr by edison. at last i found it was the problem with srep 3.93a when i replaced it with 3.92b. From that moment onwards i never god any problem.

Well, I'll check that.
Note that I tested xtool with farcry 4 too. And it seems files are not expanded as much as they could be. 24Gb=>30Gb. As a result there is a poor compression. I used a tool made by a certain edison007, and the compression was better, but the script used to decompress all that was a bit more complex. The game is still available on nomaher.com of course.

And if you want to see me in Paris to give me 1 million € so that I can fully devote myself to posting on this forum, and stop working (think my boss can't bear to see me any more), you have to know that I agree. We can meet at the procope for example to talk about that.

My target for the s&p 500: 2100 points. The housing and stock bubble will pop, sometime.

oodle for ACO

DataPC.forge (273.088.512 Bytes)

with srep64:m3f+lzma2

Code:

xtool(:c32m,t4:oodle)

260mb => 548mb => 195mb (205.152.256 Bytes)

Compression time: 192secs

Decompression time: 62secs



AFR(:a2) with in/out patch 

260mb => 548mb => 195mb (204.939.264 Bytes)

Compression time: 144secs

Decompression time: 118secs

For decompression used all threads

Only precompress:

Code:

xtool

Precompress time: 63secs

Decompress time: 55secs



AFR

Precompress time: 18secs

Decompress time: 105secs

So xtool is at least two times faster than AFR in decompression, but ~3.5 times slower in precompression

No.

@razor: Just to let you know, 65+GB data will not be inflated by xtool somehow.
I tested for Origins with c32m,t4:oodle

The first 1GB will be inflated (xtool is over 80% cpu usage), after that, arc only copying files and xtool do nothing anymore. Maybe to much data?

Yes tested with 0.9 and 0.10

Code:

Compressing 122 files, 69,051,449,344 bytes. Processed  10.0% ==>> xtool

Compressing 69,353,227,695 bytes with ==>> srep

Correction: xtool is just working for about ~250mb, then stop

Also using different separators, aka ',' and ':' for specific areas of cmd make it prone to type error, as happened to me before and I seem to be not the only person. Pure ':'s in ztool were fine and easier for inclussion with other utilities IMO. BTW I am not complaining, this tool is fantastic and ultimate, just being curious about new design.

There methods planned apart from precomp to be added in xtool, stuff like preprocessing of data, encryption, data reconstruction (rebuild), compression and etc.

Razor but for the decompression of the archive the folder can only contain the file xtool.exe, without any *.dll right?

xtool requires dll at all times, even zlib requires dll. no code of compresssion algorithms are stored within xtool except for special cases but even those special cases do not execute if a specific dll that goes hand in hand with aren't available.

And I think there is something wrong with the parser for FAT v9 (FC3, FC4) for big dat files, I kinda rushed adding this feature without conducting any proper tests.

Its pointless to decompress pages files of idTech games for further compression because you will end up having a bad ratio. In previous games they are heavily packed with some texture compression. I tried with DOOM 2016 and as far as I remember ratio was worse compared to their original compressed size.

@Razor12911 i tested xtool 0.10 on mass effect 2 type8 files when i use t100p seems like prime95 THE TEMP are very hot around 90c ?
because when i use t100p with zlib or lz4 it uses all cpu threads but the temp around 70c with lzo around 90c...
i am using i7 8700k with NH-D15...

it seems you were right, it wasn't xtool 0.10 which is crashing but srep. I tested srep 3.91, it's the same thing. You can test my latest version of The Evil Within 2, available on nomaher.com.
Note that I'm still very bearish on the s&p500.

Exactly I just want to compress these two file types (.dat and .fat), that this output is obtained!!! :confused::confused:

suppose u want to compress data.fat and data.dat located in c:/games folder.

just put in xtool.ini
c:/games/data.fat
and hit pack.bat, xtool will prexompress it.

Thank you brother, I put all of the following in xtool.ini, but none of them gave the correct result. Ratio is still 100%. :confused:
