Following files need from compressing: Arc.exe; MSC.exe; pack_TAK.exe; pack_FROG.exe; pack_BMF.exe (optional, freeze Win7!); another compressors, properly configured arc.ini files.

Following files need from decompressing: Arc.exe or unarc.exe; cls-msc.dll; another (de)compressors and properly configured arc.ini files. MSC not need arc.ini configuration from decompress. More tools required configured cls.ini file.

WAV files not compressing? Try add -tak=9 options. Safer way switch off BMP/DDSDXT/DDSRAW compression using BMF. (any=0)

FreeArc doesn't seem to like it when I put files into other folders, I just get a "The system cannot find the path specified." error. I did not know about cls-msc.dll and just tried to add it to the bin folder, but now when I try to archive with msc, it tells me "ERROR: user error (Unsupported compression method or error in parameters: cls-msc.dll)"

It looks like most of my problems are coming from something causing CRC errors. I just tried it on a folder of just basic wav files, and when extracting, all of them give a CRC error.

I just tried with lolz and that is also giving me CRC errors and infinitely looping as well now
