Arc Gui (beta)

[JRD!]

i applied full masked method: "/$text=ppmd/$jpeg=paq8pxd/$exe=exe2"

The result:

Here is the function that allows you to set the position of Diskspan to not be considered as part of the value bound to the last extension group:

function SetDiskspanValuePosition(const sMethodValue, sDiskspanValue: string): string;
var
  i: integer;
begin
  if Length(sDiskspanValue) > 0 then
  begin
    i:=Pos('/$', sMethodValue);
    if i > 0 then
    begin
      Result:=sMethodValue;
      Insert(Copy(sDiskspanValue, 2, Length(sDiskspanValue)), Result, i);
    end else
      Result:=sMethodValue+sDiskspanValue;
  end else
    Result:=sMethodValue;
end;

Example:

  ShowMessage('-m'+SetDiskspanValuePosition('/$text=ppmd/$jpeg=paq8pxd/$exe=exe2', '+diskspan:4460mb:4470mb'));

Hi JRD!
Has this project been canceled?

Hi Simorq,

This is an example for those who want to implement cls-diskspan.dll in their program.
This places the diskspan value before the part of the method that contains the groups.

About cls-diskspan:

The implementation in ArcGUI allows division into multiple DVDs or a custom size.
The first volume size of the next archive is calculated by the size of the last previous volume, which greatly simplifies its use.
If an error occurs during compression, it will retrieve information from the previous archive.

About ArcGUI:

I'm going to post version 1.15.1, it includes an automated compression method function that is based on the default values assigned to extension groups.
With a simple click, you designate a default compression method for files whose extension is not part of the groups, it allows to apply the masks when it is necessary.

I must write for a long time a help file....
Some quick info; For favorite programs in the modules folder, add "module." in the name of the program to launch,
the name of the menu "Modules -> External -> XXX" corresponds to the name of the folder in which your favorite program is located;
for the repack project creation this is in development, used "Restore Game Structure" fonction from main menu to restore the structure after the loading of a project.
