I do not know how to do. thank you and if it is not possible I will do otherwise.

You can unpack Setup DLL and edit the .dat files with Notepad and recompresst Setup.dll. Use the Tools button, DLL tab of the DSG to do this.

Extract the attachment file to the DiskSpan GUI "COMPRESSOR" folder.

I’m new to repacking games. I started using DiskSpan last week to compress my games to save some hdd space. I know different games compress better with different compression methods.

I don’t need the best compression for each game, but what is the general best compression method with DiskSpan?

There is no general best method since it depends on what compression is used.

With that out of the way, srep+lolz will yield best results for uncompressed game textures.

Thank you very much for the program, I'm trying to learn how to create an installer, I'll try to find out how it works.

I got an error message today with version 2.0.1.4:

The settings are not special, except that I have the files compared by MD5 (other options I have not tested) checksum.

Have I set anything wrong there? Whereas it worked with the same settings with v2.0.1.3.

And since I'm here: This "Disc format" is irrelevant for me and there would be no matter what I set (if I could change it - which probably currently not possible anyway?).

Does this error always happen?
You sensed the path used.
The paths used must not exceed 255 characters and cannot contain some special characters.

If possible, see if the error always happens.
try to move the folder files keeping only a few mb and recompress with the same configs and let me know if the error continues.

EDIT:
I did several tests here to check the hash and never once did this bug happen.
Maybe it could have something to do with some filename.

Okay, I think I found the "problem", after 8 hours: If I select, like on the first picture, in the bottom right corner anything (OTHER, STEAM, GOG, UWP) and in the tab "Game 1" at "List to filter exclude files:" delete the entries

_CommonRedist\*
_Backup\*

(they are already there or at least I didn't enter them), then I can reproduce this "XHashEx.dll" error.

If I add the entries again, everything works without problems.
