Without any error here... See attached video file.

EDIT:
You have the necessary space on the conversion destination drive?
You may also need space in the "C:" directory

Re-uploaded DiskSpan GUI 2.0.2.0 with last hotfix in first post.
- Added "_CONSOLE (x86).bat" in separate versions of DSG (32-bits) in #post2.

If "DiskSpan GUI" does not work on x86, create a "_CONSOLE (x86).bat" file with the code below. This command will run the cmd window separate from the "DiskSpan GUI".

@echo off & @start "" "DiskSpan_GUI.exe" /console /win32 & @exit /B

Hi, I'll probably ask a strange question, but how to compress a game on Unreal Engine, I mean, what sequence of methods to choose

[CrownRepack]

Hi, im a beginner, not very knowledgable in this, i learned compressing using the "Compressor" tool created by Razor, its simple but outdated, but i've found that it works with most arc installers,

then recently i jumped onto FMXInno Installers, i've picked an installer, edited the installer and used it with the compressed bin file by the Compressor tool and it install great without errors,

now im trying to learn DiskSpanGUI , i tried doing different compression methods, and use my FMXInno based installer to install and i get this error

can any pro or veterans help me, i just need my installer to work with this new compression method, i have no idea at all. thanks

Whatever compression you are using, you need to have all the required files in your Unpack folder and in your script as well. You need to have those definition in you arc.ini file as well. You can DM me and I can help.

For the screenshot, you need to have Xtool.exe, Zlibwapi.dll, srep files and lolz files in you Unpack folder, in your script and the definition in your arc.ini. DSG makes it even simpler for you, all the required files during the compression can be accessed by unpacking the Setup.dll

Ok i will try to add the required files and soon will DM you if i failed.

Thanks for clarifying about the Setup.dll, i tried unpacking it but i can't unpack it, how do i do it? i tried renaming it to .rar or .zip, used 7zip and winrar, but it says its not an archive or shows some error.

Hello! Version 2.0.2.0 of Diskspan GUI has too much vertical window size and won't fit on my screen, I have to enable Keep on top to see everything pass my taskbar but the problem still exists in the Tools tab because it doesn't stay on top of the taskbar inside Tools tab.

What screen resolution do you have? 640x480?

I use a 15.6" laptop with 2560x1440 resolution. The screen is just too small for its resolution, allow adjusting the window size will help. v2.0.1.9 had no issues btw.

Tools -> SetupDLL -> Unpacker
or
extract it with freearc manually

Do you tried to change the desktop scaling? I checked and I have a similar issue on my laptop (I don't use it for such purposes so I never checked that before).

Thank you, i managed to unpack the Setup.dll, Now i see the Arc and CLS ini along with the files used for compression, thanks, i will try editing my installer with this files and see if it works, after im back from work

Hi, I don't understand what's wrong, I compress any file using xtool+srep+lolz, and it gives this error, I can't figure out how to fix it.

[wareck]

(This link is rotten, hosting website have a lot of popup/click agent)

By the way , I take a quick look, krator give you the answer :

If you use diskspan to compress, diskspan is a collection of usefult software (srep, xtool, lolz ect)

When you build an installer/unpacker, it's only a graphical software who launch your commands hidden.

In another word, in the installer you must have your sofware / dll included inside , the installer need to understand what i must do with your archives...

If you take a look to ASIS, it uses the file called setup.dll made by diskspan.
In this setup.dll you will find exe/dll/ini files needed by the installer
Installer also need diskspan.dll and some other stuff...

Fxino is powerfull, but not "ready to use" you have to adjust it to you own configuration
