I had a similar problem, unpack setup.dll and see if spidey.dll and liblz4.dll are there, if so, compare liblz4.dll version, DiskSpan could take an old version of lz4. Replace it with the new one (The lz4 that you used for packing) and package it in setup.dll

[KaktoR]

I think I used the wrong lz4 library, maybe it's my fault then lol
The library shared by Razor12911 and the one which is included in DSG by default are different (even tough it's the same version).

However I have updated the plugin archive and included the library shared by Razor12911 (here), but you have to redownload it through DSG.

Howto

1. Delete the file "Spiderman_Remastered_R2.7z", located in "Resources\PRE\XTool2020\Plugins"
2. Replace DSG_External.ini with the one from the attached archive
3. Start DSG and redownload the plugin (manually or automatically does not matter)

PS: The plugin will be automatically downloaded if the file "Spiderman_Remastered_R2.7z" is not present and if you used "xtool:mspidey" method.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since César can't maintain activelly DSG at the moment, I try to add and update plugins and games.

Whats new here
Updated Spiderman Remastered
Added Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster

[KaktoR]

Whats new
Added Saints Row 2022 Xtool plugin to DSG

Test

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Creating Data1a-01.bin file, Please Wait...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FreeArc 0.67 (March 15 2014) creating archive: Conversion_Output\Data1a-01.bin
Compressed 1 file, 104,001,935 => 192,745,922 bytes. Ratio 185.33%
Compression time: cpu 0.06 sec/real 2.31 sec = 3%. Speed 45.02 mB/s
All OK

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Extracting Data1a-01.bin file, Please Wait...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FreeArc 0.67 (March 15 2014) extracting archive: Conversion_Output\DISK\Data1a-01.bin
Extracted 1 file, 192,745,922 => 104,001,935 bytes. Ratio 185.33%
Extraction time: cpu 0.05 sec/real 2.76 sec = 2%. Speed 37.71 mB/s
All OK

How to
Replace DSG_External.ini with the one from the attached archive and restart DSG.
For this plugin you have to remove --dbase option from XTool
In DSG_Arc.ini remove the red part

[External compressor:xtool,xtool_plugin]
header    = 0
default   = -c64mb -t100p
packcmd   = "PRE\XTool_2020\{compressor}.exe" precomp { -option} --dbase - - <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = "PRE\XTool_2020\{compressor}.exe" decode -t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>

PS: On last update I forgot to change the link authorization, so it was impossible for everyone to download my added plugins. This is fixed now lol.

Edit: Do not forget to update XTool.exe to latest version. I forgot to mention it, Sorry.

[mausschieber]

The Plugin give me an Error see Picture
make i something wrong?
i do all the Options given in the Post Below

[KaktoR]

In your conversion, I see the "--dbase" parameter is still there.

Like I said you have to remove this parameter from xtool settings in DSG_Arc.ini.

The files are hosted on google drive, and google drive has a limitation on the number of files per hour...
So as the message on the DSG shows... try again later

hello how to add the records.ini file to the setup.dll when you quit DSG and forget to click on merge the record.ini file at the end of the compression?
Is there an option to check for it to automatically face it?

MERGERING Records.ini into Setup DLL.
- Run DiskSpan GUI in normal mode.
- Click on the "Tools" button.
- Click on the "DLL Setup" tab.
- Click on the "Records" subtab.
- Click on the "Select" button and search for the Setup.dll file you want to change.
- Click the "Merge INI" button.

If you want to separate a Records.ini file that is already merged again, the process will be the same, however the button will be captioned "Unpack DLL".
