Have you read the post? It didnt work. Managed to compress it with xtool but crc problems on unpacking. Maybe finding correct .dll files would do the trick but tried with many different versions...

use ztool:max:c256m:t75p it should work but might take too much time as I tested long time ago

Ok, i will try it later on the smallest file. Tried ztool yesterday too and yes, its slow but i waited. After trying to install i got crc problem. Lets see if it works with c256m.

Edit: And i thought that reflate was slow like a turtle, 20 minutes ago i started with a 500mb file, still on the first step. But hey, if it works, time doesnt matter (at least i hope it wouldnt take a week xDDD)

Edit 2: After 35 minutes its done, 571mb-->36mb with reflate 571--> 47mb. Tested it now without crc issues. I will try it now with one of the files that didnt worked with reflate but this looks good. Many many thanks DiCaPrIo !!! The chunksize value didnt even come to my mind while i was testing it. If this works maybe i can try out xtool with the newest zlibwapi.dll, this dll was ultra fast but got the same problem then ztool yesterday. At least its a good point to start.
