Edit xtool.ini, add all the dat files in there

[Dunia2]
File1=C:\Program Files (x86)\Far Cry 3 Complete Collection\Far Cry 3\data_win32\common.dat
File2=C:\Program Files (x86)\Far Cry 3 Complete Collection\Far Cry 3\data_win32\ige.dat
File3=C:\Program Files (x86)\Far Cry 3 Complete Collection\Far Cry 3\data_win32\patch.dat
File4=C:\Program Files (x86)\Far Cry 3 Complete Collection\Far Cry 3\data_win32\patch_german.dat
File5=C:\Program Files (x86)\Far Cry 3 Complete Collection\Far Cry 3\data_win32\shadersobj.dat

something like this then use lzo codec in arc.ini

[External compressor:xprecomp]
header    = 0
packcmd   = xtool.exe e:precomp:t4:lzo - - <stdin> <stdout>
unpackcmd = xtool.exe d:precomp:t4 - - <stdin> <stdout>

Compressed 12 files, 700,791,484 => 1,143,391,721 bytes. Ratio 163.16%
Compression time: cpu 1.31 sec/real 104.83 sec = 1%. Speed 6.68 mB/s

Extracted 12 files, 1,143,391,721 => 700,791,484 bytes. Ratio 163.16%
Extraction time: cpu 1.98 sec/real 72.79 sec = 3%. Speed 9.63 mB/s

Same applies to Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 5, except with Far Cry 5, use lz4

Thamks but fc3_main.dat (3.2gb) not decompressing(((

I heard Far Cry Primal uses modified lz4 and as for Watch Dogs, I have no idea how to use xcompress library in Delphi otherwise detecting its streams is easy.
