Prettyboy099 I suggest you to use FreeArc next time you want to compress your conversions, thus to avoid having 2 files like the one you posted here.
Here are the sizes of your conversion with Winrar and FreeArc:
Winrar=106Mb
FreeArc=90Mb

Surely, Winrar sucks now a days....
I compressed again with 7zip based bat file compressor that came with DiskSpan and Compressed size is 90.4 MB.....
It's better to be a single file, so I re-uploaded it.....

I've been looking at your conversion and noticed that you used the WinVerBuild= key in the system requirements sections.

This key works together with WinVerMajor= and WinVerMinor= and ServicePack=.
If you choose to use the System= key you can only use this:

Code:

System=Windows 10 build 1909

I found the minimum VRAM requirements quite strange, but from what I researched a GTX 970 (4 GB) runs at HIGH level at 29 FPS. If this information is true then the minimum requirements must be exaggerated.

Thanks, I did not know.... In next update, I will fix it.....

I think I took the sys. req. from GameSpot... which posted the given req...
But Given req. of min and recom. matches that of Steam page....

No need to change. I reviewed it and found that it works that way too.
If you don't write the word build in the System= key line, the default value from the winverbuild= key will be read (see red color part code below).

Code:

function GetSystemReq(Key, Section: String): Integer;

begin

  case LowerCase(Key) of

    'winvermajor' : Result := WindowsRequirimentsFromString(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, GetValInt(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, 0));

    'winverminor' : Result := WindowsRequirimentsFromString(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, GetValInt(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, 0));

    'winverbuild' : Result := WindowsRequirimentsFromString(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, GetValInt(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, 0));

    'servicepack' : Result := WindowsRequirimentsFromString(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, GetValInt(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, 0));

    'ram'         : Result := Trunc(GetSizeBytes(GetValStr(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, ''), 0) / PowerK(1, POWER_MB));

    'videoram'    : Result := Trunc(GetSizeBytes(GetValStr(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, ''), 0) / PowerK(1, POWER_MB));

    else

      Result := GetValInt(Section + 'SystemReq', Key, 0);

  end;

end;

SUGGESTION (Perhaps this will be useful in another project):
See what it looks like if you include the CIU title option.

>> Setup.ini changes:

Code:

[SetupTitle]

Left=56

Top=13

Font=cocogoose letterpress

Visible=1



[SetupTitleAR]

Left=56

Top=14

Font=cocogoose letterpress

Visible=1

With compression method: [7] xZLib + SREP + LOLZ
Result is:
Input Size: 29.91 GB.
Output Size: 28.1 GB.

The game contains these two files:
oo2core_8_win64.dll
oo2net_8_win64.dll

I guess the only way to have a good compression ratio is to use oodle method.

So, any tip to compress Deathloop?

Thanks in advance!!:)

Yeah, .resources files respond only to oo2reck8...
I compressed a small file 'rsc_images_14_0.resources' with oo2reck8, it gave result....

Code:

30,303,727 bytes => 41,937,255 bytes

Also Razor12911 posted a Deathloop Plugin, we have to wait for someone making it work with DiskSpan....
Also don't use bpk on .bk2 files, gives crc error....

I already include the plugin in the current DiskSpan GUI, but I'm still adding new features and it might take a while.
Whenever you have requests to include support for a plugin, send me a PM, or add it yourselves just by editing the "DSG_Methods.ini" file and including the necessary files.

So I've attached an update so I can use the plugin in this DEATHLOOP conversion.
Replace resource folder after extracting conversion and accept replacement of all files.
It also includes 4 presets using the plugin that can be chosen directly from the method combobox.
I haven't tested the plugin's inclusion in DiskSpan GUI, but I believe it works correctly.

P.S: For other conversion developers using DiskSpan GUI version 2.0.0.2 you can also replace the files, but just delete the "Resources\DSG_Settings.ini" file from the update to not replace your DiskSpan GUI settings.

Setup updated....
1. DiskSpan updated to latest 2.0.0.9.....
2. Game size updated to 30 GB.....
3. Added setup for one language.....

Thank you
