This is not zlib. Most likeley same as Alan Wake 2 because it's the same game engine.

Code:

Processing input: G:\Control Resonant

Streams: 156742
  - zlib = 6235 (0,02%)
  - png = 4 (0,00%)
  - kraken = 73 (0,01%)
  - wwise (vorbis) = 149988 (13,49%)
  - bink (v1i) = 1 (0,00%)
  - flac = 17 (0,00%)
  - leviathan = 74 (0,01%)
  - bink (v2j) = 241 (5,75%)
  - bink (v2n) = 64 (0,43%)
  - mermaid = 21 (0,00%)
  - zstd = 24 (0,00%)

These two Files contains entirely vorbis audio:
Speech.vox
Audio.vox
Mesa to extract the ogg file and xtool erase command for xtl

After Extraction:
.ogg file:

Code:

oggre

rest of the files:

Code:

zlib+srep+lolz

Input:3.9 GB
Output:0.9 GB
Unpacking Time: 5 Mins on 8 threads

I will tell a secret. You can extract with xtool aswell.

Code:

xtool.exe precomp -mogg -x"G:\output" "G:\Strangeland\speech.vox"

Output folder must exist before.

^^
xtool.exe precomp -mogg -x"output" "audio.vox"

Code:

Processing input: audio.vox

Streams: 0 / 755
Patched: 0 (0.00 MB)

Size: 187 MB >> 187 MB

Time: 00:00:05 (CPU 00:00:01)

output folder is already created like you mentioned.
Not sure what I’m doing wrong

KaktoR · #**4701** Today, 06:57

The extracted files should be extracted to output folder in RAW extension. It works fine here.

Make a batch file with this near xtool.exe and drag&drop the file onto batch file.

Code:

@echo off
CD /D "%~dp0"
if not exist "_output" mkdir "_output"

xtool.exe precomp -mogg -x"_output" %1

pause

Seems to work fine now, I was thinking the raw couldn't be compressed with oggre lol.
Tested on the Extracted Audio.vox by xtool:

Code:

Compressed 747 files, 195,173,370 => 171,879,133 bytes. Ratio 88.06%
Compression time: cpu 0.22 sec/real 26.18 sec = 1%. Speed 7.46 mB/s
All OK

Glad you figured it out.

There is also wwise extraction. Very usefull because mesa lately fails everywhere.

You can extract all possible streams with xtool as long as xtool supports those streams.
