from past experience the best setting for lzma i recommend lzma:a1:mfbt4:d512m:fb273:mc10000:lc8 or if you have alot of ram you could increase d512m to 756m or 1024mb still better than lzma2 or lzma:ultra that used by panker...
just be sure that you using fazip 64 for lzma to overcome memory limit in freearc.
the max lzma is d182mb in freearc alone without fazip...

[External compressor:lzma,delta,exe,mm,rep,tor,4x4]
header = 0
packcmd = fazip -i0 compress:{compressor}{:option} <stdin> <stdout>

* srep need less tan 1gb decompresion memory for Assetto...
i will try to use pzlib:max:c64m+srep:m5f:a2+delta+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d51 2m:fb273:mc10000:lc8
no need for more than 64m for pzlib...

OK...

1. I've been using these settings for LZMA/LZMA64:

Code:

a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8

Do LZMA64 (which is external to freearc) have the same memory limit you mentioned? my guess would be no.

2. Can't use FAZip, I tried, it caused problems with freearc itself, it caused the default methods of m1, m2, m4, etc, to crash, see here

I'm currently trying your above method (with slight changes since some of the options you set up there for pzlb & srep are already default in my arc.ini, so no need to specify them.

One question though, it's currently at the LOLZ part of the compression, it claims it gonna take almost 13 more hours, is that real? is that even normal?

Anyway, I'm tending (from cosmetic reasons) toward not using LOLZ, too much screen clutter.

But I'll wait and see the final result first.

it depend on you pc.
i used mt8 not mt2 i have alot of ram 64gb so there no problem it took 54min,
i changed in the post above to mt2 because most poeple likely have 16gb or 8gb of ram in in their system.
*mt does not affect the compression ratio...

I have 16GB of RAM in my machine and a pretty good Intel I7 CPU, still, it got to a point where the remaining time was over 27 hours, It was way too long and I had to cancel it, I'm looking for alternative solutions and considering to just stop trying to get the size down to 2xDVD5/1xDVD9 size and settle for the 3 Disc result.

Either way, LOLZ doesn't seem to be the solution for me, way too slow for me (and probably most people).

Right now trying to replace LOLZ with RZM, see the times and ratio, but that will be the last attempt I do, after that, if I don't get the result I want I'll set the conversion up for 3 discs.

it will use 12.5gb of ram and all 8 threads ...
i used it on mad max it took 76 min...

OK, I'll see about trying that...

I'm just not sure if getting the game down to 2xDVD5 size is worth all the time I spend on it.

OK, trying it now, been working almost 2 hours, it's now at the LOLZ part...

1. LOLZ was Taxing my CPU to the max (100%), had to limit it via TaskManager to use only half the CPU cores so I can keep working with my computer.

2. Time-wise, gonna take at least another 9 hours and still rising.

I honestly don't like these kind of times for compression, I can accept 4-5 hours on my machine, it's decent enough but 8 is a little too much, not mention longer, especially to only get less than 1GB additional compression over a compression that takes 3-4 hours.

I'm really starting to realize I should probably leave it at 3 Discs, it doesn't worth the time.

Have you tested DLZ?

Actually no, I haven't but I'm just tired of trying, I've been at it for around a week, maybe a little more, I'm currently going back to the beginning, a simple srep64+lzma64 or srep64+lzma, it turns out in the end as two (2) full DVD5 discs and a smaller disc of less than 400MB without additional files, once I'll have both options compressed I'm gonna see which one's faster in compression and install times and decide by that, the size difference is insignificant.

Hell, it was insignificant in all attempts with any compressors combination, except perhaps the ones that took way too long (15 hours or more) like LOLZ/Precomp but I have no intention of using those so back to the simplest option.

It will still fit 2xDVD5 or less with a game that isn't completely updated and/or don't have all DLCs installed.

I'm not gonna waste any more time on that, I've made my decision, hopefully I can release this conversion in the next few days.

Well, if it helps, DLZ offers a little more compression than LZMA at almost the same speed. Depends on the data in the end.

Grow some skill before trying to steal other repackers works. If you'd have enough experience, you wouldn't ask that question.

yes razor makes very good tools also stuff he doesn't even use even
he recently came out of retirement to make Xtool..
wether or not he goes back into retirement after that remains to be seen..
i honestly hope not but the decision is his alone

I'm not trying to steal anyone's work, I'm just trying to extract the game to play, but its setup is crap and does not work for many users, so if you do not repair your own work yourself let others try

she will not share how to use her setups..
she will not give you tools or compression methods..
no one on here will help you due to the amount of respect
that the community on here has for FitGirl..
and anyone who can figure out how to use that
deserves a medal...
you should really try other ways to compress and install games...
because you are wasting your time with this
and by the way those arc ini settings are hers
any one of us who have been in these forums for a period of time
can easily spot that....

Have a trouble with decompression, compress algorithm pzlib:m3:max:c128m:t100p+srep:m2f:a2+lolz:d32 compress done successfully with files of GTAV x64a.rpf,x64b.rpf,x64c.rpf,x64d.rpf 3.91 GB > 1.48 GB. When installer decompressing the files after x64c.rpf it's stuck on x64d.rpf and gives CRC check error. Which detail I might have missed? Tried only with x64a.rpf,x64b.rpf it's compressing and decompressing with any problem, maybe the total size causes to crc error?

Are you really sure its a pzlib giving you CRC error and not Srep?

Hello friend, judging by the console output, the X switch is to "combine reflate with zlib (ultra method)"

pZLib v3 (х64) loses data.
i used to compress 1 file. Placed pZLib v3, х64 hif2raw_dll.dll, raw2hif_dll.dll in one folder. Got the result first time ~300 mb, second time ~200 mb, third time ~ 400 mb.
It is impossible to unpack the file, hangs at 0%

pack command
pZLib3.exe e -m1 -c64m -t100p file.zip -o TTTTTTTTT

unpack command
pZLib.exe d -t100p TTTTTTTTT -o file.zip
