(sorry for my bad english)
From this latest version of ASIS, it works with decompressors stored externally in a file of the same name as the installer with extension ".dll" (Setup.exe/Setup.dll "or Install.exe/Install.dll, etc.).
This DLL file is nothing more than a freeArc (.arc) file and it is necessary to have all the files necessary to do the decompression inside DLL file (Except ISDone.dll and UnArc.dll).
So the current ASIS is being shared with a decompression tool DiskSpan_GUI, which generates the Setup.dll file (with all necessary decompressors) when performing the compression depending on the method chosen to compress.

Ah here, I've always used only FreeArc with the simple method -m5 ...

I've never used the "DiskSpan_GUI" and I don't know where to put my hands at the moment .. in practice I would like to compress the files of a game (The Godfather) making it become "Data.AZA" is it possible to make it become this way?

ps: it is possible to translate the DiskSpan_GUI? in other language example Italian?

Thanks to much Cesar82

If you use the m5 method you can use it from DiskSpan_GUI to compress your game (see the image below).
You can also just enter "5" in the method Memo.

This way, a Setup.dll file will be generated in the output folder.
So if you always use "-m5", you can use this same DLL (In all next projects) together with Setup.exe and you will no longer need DikskSpan_GUI.
You can choose to disable DiskSpan just by entering the GUI config mode and checking the "UltraARC MODE" checkbox, so CLS-DiskSpan.dll will not be included in Setup.dll.

Edit:
The last 3 methods are not working because after adding quotation marks to the methods they no longer work. I'll fix it in the next version of DiskSpan_GUI.
