Mass Effect Andromeda

if i remember it should inflate to 87gb with xtool(zstd) or you can use ztool 32bit with libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll...
this is the files for xtool that i used

I'm on 88GB inflate, have just checked (without extra stuff like soundtrack).

Latest version directly from Origin (legit copy), EN+FR language ripped (except subtitle files, they are just a few kb in size).

I will let lolz running over night with d128m option only.

KaktoR, i did Andromeda too some time ago, just looked to my installer and its 29,6GB (a bit higher then doofoo24) but with d64 on lolz, so size should be something around 29-30gb without problem.

If it helps, i didnt touched on this game the chunksize on xtool, it was default by ultraarc 2900, if i remember well c32mb on xtool and other tools included on uarc 2900. I remember this because it was one of my first conversions here hehehe.

Edit: Also my original ripped size (after ripping files) is 2gb lower then yours v1.10 too.

I have only ripped EN+FR languages.

I will try again with just d128m for lolz (but actually I don't want to wait again 18 hours)

first of all, thank you for the answer

Does it support the methods you've given?

If I send the Setup tool

Can you check if it's compatible?

You could even unpack all videos, rename file extension from bikc to bik and apply bpk on them. After installing write batch to pack the folders/files back to archive with jc3packer.

Maybe german language files are bigger KaktoR, i just removed all languages (only let english) and all other bonus stuff but with subtitles (legit too from Origin as my others ME Games). I cant exactly remember all stuff i have ripped, are languages only EN+FR+DE ? Im not sure but IT is almost included on all ME Games as voice language too (not sure about andromeda). My game size doesnt reach 47gb with all those stuff ripped (have to install it again but on installer it says i need 46800 so i suppose its something like that haha).
