ram with m3f if i remember around 16gb for srep alone but with m2f only 6.5gb...
alot less temp files i found that with game like mad max/ gta v using m2f better...

What happened to Syndicate was crazy, the compression times were fast as hell compared to unity but installation times were not good. Even on Odyssey or Origins 1.51 they are a bit slow. Cores are also important, all this times and tests are on a 4 cores pc, i tested Final Fantasy XV on my other pc, it has 8 cores and install times were faster. (on my notebook with 2 cores over 3 hours xD). But i will take a look into this, 200mb for half time installation is worth, compressions times didnt matter to me, i leave it on over day/night and use my other pc but installations times are what im searching for (without loosing much ratio).

Thanks again !!!

Add "$Default" to Arc.Groups

KaktoR · #9 03-10-2018, 11:44

Thanks. I have solved this error.

I have one normal archive with masked compression (it's just ~3GB), the second archive is with diskspan. I just had to seperate the arc.groups from cls-diskspan (they will not work in same directory). arc.groups is now in a other folder and it works now without problems,

Simorq · #10 03-10-2018, 11:57

@KaktoR

If $Default is added to Arc.Groups, DiskSpan will work without problem.

KaktoR · #11 03-10-2018, 12:26

Thanks, it works
