Best Compression Methods for 'Specific' Games. Q&A - Page 53

Good morning, here is the third and last Dishonored game.

Code:

Title:           Dishonored: Death of the Outsider
Version:         v1.144.0.17

PC:              4 Cores 3.9GHz (up to 4.3GHz) + 8GB Ram + SSD

Ripped Files:    All foreign languages

Original Size:   31.4 GB
Compressed Size: 14.6 GB

Method:          binkpack on *.bk2 files
                 pzlib:max:c256m+srep:m3f+lolz:d128:mc1023 on rest of files
                                 
Compress Time:   8 hours 40 minutes (31207.52 sec)
Install Time:    10 minutes

CRC Checked:     Yes

Note:
Its important to use c256m on ZTool or it will give CRC error on installation.
You can also save up to 500mb if you delete the credits.bk2.

Like Dishonored 2 i had lot of issues, have tried it with XTool first on single files and it worked but when i packed the full game, Xtool has stopped after 4 hours.
I have to take a better look into this because im sure that on this two games we can get extra 500mb-1gb using xtool.

PS: You need to use c128m to avoid CRC errors on unpacking!

Updated and removed ZTool because in this case it takes much longer (+100%) and it has bigger output.

@everyone When you post compression method, I would be very very thankful if you could write the game version too, because some people might be confused when looking at INDEX, obviously v1.0 will be smaller in size than for example v1.50, but some users dont know that and we will probably have some posts saying that the given compression size is not accurate and that it is bigger.
BTW, Wanna say thank you to everyone that it is contributing to this thread, its much appreciated!

I think that something is wrong with your srep 3.9.2. On the last game you posted i couldnt test it myself because i dont have the game. But i have Killer Instinct and there is no problem with srep. Maybe you are using wrong cls for installing? On the script i use there are 2 srep versions, i almost use the older one because i had 0 errors but on some games (in special with forge files) if i use the newer one i get crc error. My cls-srep.dll for decompression has 86kb, (the new one is 17kb and have lot of problems with it).

The error occurs during compression and not during decompression. I tried with different options but I solved it only using the Srep v3.93.

Mine are just considerations and reports. Use them as a starting point for new tests in your repack.

I have KI packed already without problems on compress/decompress with srep 3.92. Thats why its strange. If it helps im using uarc 2900 with the included srep version 3.9.2. The only difference is that i use m3f and not m5f, maybe it has something to do with that.
