I don't know but for me inflation just stops after a few percents if I took all files.

Can't Compress Far Cry 5 with new Xtool 011

File, one by one for testing it works...
but when i put all (.dat) files to xtool.ini files.
It takes 2h for decompressing, but actually it won't decompress files.. I don't know why.

Of anyone knows please share information..

so far What I've try,
I have check all files one by one, then i saw some files ratio 100% so i remove them from xtool.ini and,
all 0 bytes dat files too, then i have all 15 files and i try i though it works nope not working..

It seems xtool has a bug...

Please share if you know more information about this..

[yasitha]

can you please fix for Far Cry 5?

I have Try more then 5, 6 Different way to pack all files, nope can't do that. but File by file can.

[KaktoR]

I got sorted out my previous problem. Whenever I include the HD pack file, it doesn't work. I will try with only hd pack file soon (maybe too large input?).

Yes maybe we need to leave smaill ratio and hd files.
Small ratio like under 105% cause i think that what cause this problem... I've try everything but i didn't try that one.

I have tried without HD files but i didn't try with low ratio like unde 105%,

on full game 106% ratio is not right.

HD files have no compression at all.

Yes i have done all testing...the problem is
When i pack all dat files at once with xtool.ini
Ratio like103% / 106% / 107%

What is happening?
you know what causing this?

I have test all the files. one at a time,
Most of them have under 105% ratio. So finally i have 10 files but still 107% on all files but one by one ratio like 124% / 224% / 142% / 151%

If you could help I'll appreciate it ☺

[yasitha]

I have use this settings for all test..
"xtool.exe e:precomp:c128mb,t8:lz4"

but still can't pack all files at once,
when i do that, i get only 107% Ratio that's it!

if anyone could find a way to do that?
We can just use xtoil for FC5... simple..

I tell this problem to KaktoR and
He's working on it.
he had the same issues.

I have tested aswell with FC5 now.

Output is way bigger if you unpack all files one by one then unpack all at once (keep archives).


Something is wrong

so this is xtool problem?

[KaktoR]

I don't know. Without doing math, average should be around 130% - 150% on all files.

I will try with xtool 0.6 (it was introducing dunia engine support).
