ALso make sure you set your used compressors in "Compressors.ini" file. For example, if you used XTool, then enable it (remove // before of it) and set OS bit (x64, x86 or DUAL for both versions).
Hi kaktoR! I never realised I had to edit Compressors.ini... that was my bad.

At the minute I am trying just using the default settings in Mini Compressor which you can see here:



I'm not too sure on how to word compression commands, so I'm not sure which compressor this command uses. Also when this method runs, the output file won't open in FreeArc. It says the archive is corrupt.

There is also an insane command, but using this breaks the program. FreeArc gets to 16% then crashes.

xprecomp+srep:m3f:a2+exe+lolz:d128m:mt2 - I assume that xprecomp means XTool?

This is the error:



I am only using Poly Bridge since it's a small (200mb~) Unity game to test until I have everything working.

I think xprecomp didn't support with your operating system. What is your main support? X86 or x64?

Nope, file doesn't exist. Which other compression commands could I use?

Thank you very much to Entai44, Carldric Clement and KaktoR for their help!

I am very pleased to say that I'll have my first ever repack finished soon. I cannot thank you guys enough for the tips, tricks and how kind you have been to me.

I wish you all the best for the future,

BR

Edit: Still getting Unarc -6 unable to read archive and other Unarc -6 errors when testing. Error code is same but error message sometimes changes. Editied Compressors.ini to include Xtool for precomp and LOLZ because I used those in UltraARC to make my archive, but still no change.

Feel free to take a look at my installer to see if you know where things are going wrong. This is the template I customised based on ASIS and currently has no custom branding. I moved everything around a bit, and intend to use it in compact mode.
