[pakrat2k2]

many thanks for updating, should hopefully cut down on questions asked IF they read this

[Grumpy]

Yes very well done for all the time and effort you put in for everyone Yener, same goes for you too Pakrat.
You both do an exceptional job in my opinion.

hey dude is there anyway to just use SREP and not precomp, for some games precomp just crashes

[pakrat2k2]

you can use either.. but be aware files like media & audio( bik & wav/ogg) dont precomp well if at all, so if a particular game your trying to precomp the issue may be those types of files as to why your having issues getting it to work.

[davidwbiggs2011]

if i don't use one or the other the setup gives me and error saying no files for srep or precomp i want it to be data1.arc > data1.srep > data1.bin with no precomp at all but it won't work

A question to add to installer to decompress the. Cab or. Arc from the same site, the user need the program installed on your computer arc.

[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1={src}\Data1.arc;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile2={src}\Data2.arc;DestDir:{app};Disk:1

Ademarpato Thanks for the info.

Then the same installer and unzip all without needing to have the program installed on your computer FreeArc.

Hey been testing the installation of the game and gives me an error of corrupt files.
And do not know why I get this if everything is well compressed. ISDone.dll

[vendecido33]

Someone can explain me how to compress large files well without me any errors.

Not much use FreeArc, SREP precomp or if you usais these commandos and not used for a compression of this type. Please be if someone can help me.

What is the best compression method for a. Cab that makes a program. Cab

[pakrat2k2]

Hey used to compress files and create program files FreeArc data1.arc data2.arc etc. .. pak files but severe compression gives me some that are damaged but not why.

And so was wondering how there using you to compress large files.

[pakrat2k2]

what compression level were you trying

[vendecido33]

I do not understand is why it gives me error decompressing the archivosm large, according to eh I realized pak files with extension. I usually set the maximum compression that calls up to 1GB of RAM.

[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1={src}\Data1.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile2={src}\data2.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1
FreeArcFile3={src}\data3.cab;DestDir:{app}\gamecry sis2;Disk:2
FreeArcFile4={src}\data4.cab;DestDir:{app}\gamecry sis2;Disk:2
FreeArcFile5={src}\data5.cab;DestDir:{app}\gamecry sis2;Disk:3

Well I have new problems in this way I work all right until it reaches the disc 3 and I skip to the end an error that says it is not the correct disk and flaltan the files that are in the disk1 the loading setup.a.bin disc 1 is arranged everything and do not know why but I asked those files. Is there any way to do that directly ask me disk 1.
