does anyone know how do such stuff ??
I tried to compress the final extracted files directly with free arc..but i don't get such a compression ratio..
Please Help ME !!

Compress the game files with freearc with -m0 command (no compression).
the resultant file is (eg. data.arc) is processed through precomp.
then work srep on that file ( data.pcf).
then finally compress that srep file (data.pcf.srep) with freearc again with maximum compression.
data.arc>data.pcf>data.pcf.srep>data.cab
you can try this but every game has different compression method for minimum size.
Good luck
