I've tried all ztool pzlib switches x rx r9 m2 and all failed to deflate streams
What are your settings please?
Thanks.

setting for xtool
packcmd = xtool.exe erecomp:c128mb,t4:zlib - - <stdin> <stdout>

the files are there and same settings used that's strange, i will redownload the files again.
Are you using x86 or x64 version of xtool and it's libraries?

as i said just use xtool with (zlibwapi.dll/raw2hif_dll.dll/hif2raw_dll.dll) better to remove other dll like (lz4.dll/lzo2...)

Already removed all other dlls and kept the ones you mentioned no gain, i've used xtool many times and it's working fine except this type of games that have *.pc_textures files
