Thanks a lot for compressor. But it returns ISDone.dll error.

Jarmen_Kell · #3 10-09-2023, 02:04

Maybe data methods most be stored in separate files.

yes, but you use the new version of DSG I still have the old one. maybe that causes the error?
When will the new version of DSG come out?

KaktoR · #8 10-09-2023, 05:59

It has nothing to do with that. oggre is still the same, nothing has changed.

Edit: @Jarmen_Kell, send me this file which gives you the error. I noticed this game has english and german audio.

DSG.rar
Here is all DSG files of this compressor.

KaktoR · #10 10-09-2023, 07:11

No, I mean that ogg file, for which you get the error on installation.

Jarmen_Kell · #11 10-09-2023, 07:11

Anyway, I think the problem may be in Setup file. I tested some another methods like xtool:dd3:l6,d128mb and srep_new:1+lolz:d133:mtt1:mt8:mc1023. But all of them cause ISDone.dll error just in 9.1%.

Unfortunatelly I didn't save the log...

36.4GB -> 13.7GB

EGPath=C:\Program Files\Stardock Entertainment\Ashes of the Singularity Escalation
MethodState=0

I used this method and get the error again.

And its the ogg file: Tutorial_Advanced_Armies_02.rar
Path: {Game Folder}\Assets\Audio\Campaign\Advanced_Tutorial

Works here

However, I saw that you use probably dvd5 size. Do the compression again with the unlimited disc size. Maybe there is a error in the split function if no cls-diskspan was used.

Jarmen_Kell · #15 11-09-2023, 05:46

Well, I do so and this time I get the error on another fire . . .
