Try with this custom sod2 scripts.

Unfortunately, none of the three worked.

If I remember correctly this game uses standard lz4, not lz4hc but I could be mistaken. Also I think -mue4:lz4 (via unreal engine plugin) should work too in case you're having issues with database.

How to compress *.naz files in total overdose, i need to make a lossy repack

Use naztozip linked here to convert the archive:
https://github.com/Michael0ne/TOD_to...r/naztozip.exe

From there, you should be able to browse their contents and get a good look at what they contain.

Someone checked "Atlas Fallen"? Looks like it is compressed with lz4f. XTool detects the streams but is not able to process them.

I tried with the script "thesurge2.bms" to unpack the files selecting the "toc" but quickbms gives error:

https://t88.pixhost.to/thumbs/861/37...5_immagine.png

Just use -mlz4f,l2

Edit:

There are just a few bytes which not match, so use xdelta library for precompressing and decompressing.

Sorry if i joined, I choose this compress method in DSG to compress this game is right or not?
Thank you:)

Atlas Fallen
 

*.dat -> xtool:mlz4f+srep+lolz [22.2GB >> 15.3GB]
*.webm -> mpz_pmt [3.15GB >> 3.10GB]
Rest everything -> srep+lzma

I also think audio\speech-german.fsb is a language file and can be skipped, or included in additional components. I'll run some checks on language and update

I was compressing some *.big files and it was in a sounds folder, so i tried to use a media compressor and i run some tests

When i used the media compressor ratio is like 70-80%
When i was not using them i was getting 10-20%

This heavy difference is due to encryption? If anyone knows any tool to decrypt this file please share, these files are commonly found in EA Games

What game and can you share a small sample?

BigGUI or FinalBIG (and the any alternative) tools??

These tools will be useful i myself earlier found such a tool but it could not only decrypt it but not pack them back after i am done with recoding

@Fak Eid

Webm container supports only vorbis/opus audio.
Mpz is not for compressing such files! Ok,you gain some megas.
Btw mpz can compress almost everything with little gain. (In my experiences)

Edit :
Sry for "spamming". :)

I guess it will be still the case in final release.

Used Oodle core v2.9.5

Judgment
 

Best Method Of Compression , plz! :)

probably srep+lolz

Dragon Ball Z Kakarot
v2.0

For USM videos you can use bcm.
zstd for AWB files performs best if you don't want to deal with them in other ways.

Hi, maybe someone know what best compress method for armored core VI. Thank you:)

It uses Kraken at level 8. Please use core v2.8.14.

Hi
anyone know best compress for FIFA 23?

I'm sure that's gonna compress really well - Leviathan lvl 9 :D

Sorry if i ask again, is this true compress method for armored core?
Or it same with elden ring?
Thank you:)

Well, he asked for the best option, and I am sure this is the only best option here :D

Data3.bdt uses l9 :confused:

Yeah I realised something was up from my rubbish size posted above. Dodi repack is 11GB smaller. :(

I think it's because if you compress archives and video together, srep cuts off a lot. Maybe some of the videos are also inside the archives.

You can find out if you precompress the files in verbose mode with output and search for bink2 headers in hxd.

Edit: I did the thing explained above and indeed, there are bink2 video files inside the bdt files aswell.

Edit 2: Using bink2 xtool plugin on the unpacked data files

You don't need to precompress the data to find the bink2 data. It's there in plaintext.

Cut from mesa:

They duplicated the entire movies folder in Data0.bdt.

Lol, so 11gb worth of trash. Nice devs.

In total they are 276 files inside Data0.bdt, but it's missing "dummyMovie.bk2", so there has to be a file which is not in the movie folder.

However you can cut the files out of Data0.bdt and reimport them back later with xtool again if you want. The game starts normally with cutted files and is playing intro movies (it reads the movies from the movie folder).

For cut files
For reimport files
Edit:
CRC matching after erase/decode
So you can easily use xtool bink2 plugin for the movies folder and cut the files out of Data0.bdt without getting any errors and/or unwanted duplicates for the movies.

Hi, sorry if i join to discuss. How to do it in DSG? thank you;)

When it comes to testing oodle libraries is it just trial and error like with testing LZ4 libraries? Haven't tackled a ton of Oodle titles and currently taking a crack at "Wolfenstein Cyberpilot". Testing with the included "oo2core_6_win64.dll" reveals with verbose mode in xtool that only level 4 streams are successfully processed, however the sample I'm using for testing only ~300/900 streams are processed with this resulting in only a 100.10% output. I should know how to deal with Oodle by now, but in the past I've been lazy and just read through the posts here to figure out which library to use.

@L33THAK0R
With XToolUI you can use library checker.

Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon

All files are matching with the original files after installation (use xtool decode + the xtl file).

PS: I don't know what's up with that sd.bdt file. Maybe someone can check it as it is not compressed with kraken.

I think SD.bdt is sound data? Not sure :p

Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon

1. Xtool erase Movies folder from Data0.BDT

2. Compress:

• *.bdt
  
  Code:

  ---

  xtool_kraken_dd5+lolz

  ---

• *.bk2
  
  Code:

  ---

  xtool_bk2_dd5_fl2

  ---

• Everything else:
  
  Code:

  ---

  razor

  ---

3: Xtool decode database you made in Step 1 to restore Data0.bdt.

59.7GB ---> 38.2GB

Guys!

Those duplicated bk2 files in data0.bdt are required to run the game ?
