same reason i mess with everything TESTING and at the time i did not know it was compressed with hydra so instead of poking at my posts like you have done in the past please leave me alone

I understand that there's no point in compressing the game since the files are encrypted? If the precomp has no overall effect.

[FitGirl]

Correct. Encrypted data can't be preprocessed.

Hello,

I have a small question regarding what to expect from Oodle rec.

I have compressed the main files of Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice using it, many thanks, however I was wondering if the files are meant to be precompressed into much larger sizes, such as how zlib precompression can make files more than 150% their original size!

Here is a snippet from my compression log:

Compressing 5 files, 12,138,901,881 bytes
  Compressing Data2.bdt
  Compressing Data4.bdt
  Compressing Data3.bdt
  Compressing Data1.bdt
  Compressing Data5.bdt
  
Compressing 12,204,222,513 bytes with srep64

Please note I copied the oo2core_6_win64.dll from the game to my oodle folder in my compressor, and I am using the Kraken version.

My point is, the precompression hasn't seemed to make the files much larger. Does this mean there is an error with the process? I am only asking because previous to today, I have not compressed an Oodle game.

After SREP and LOLZ, the end archive is 9.6GB (from 11.3GB).

This game use kraken?

If I am incorrect, I will try a different tool. I saw that panker pointed to poodle including an oo2core_4_win64.dll, will this not cause incompatibility with the oo2core_6 used in Sekiro?

I read that you recommended oo2reck on another thread: https://www.fileforums.com/showpost....18&postcount=2

Only because I totally forgot about ztool oodle

I would say just test on a single file and compare

Thank you, I will use ZTool. What is the purpose of oo2ext dlls? I hope they aren't required since I do not have one for version 6, only a core.

Edit: ZTool doesn't appear to have a oodle option, perhaps I am missing something?

Edit 2: I just figured out Poodle will work with different cores. I think I am sorted. Thank you again sir.

Edit 3: poodle has 100% ratio on a 516mb sample.

Edit 4: kraken has 100% ratio too.

I am slightly clueless.

Update: I also tried XTool Oodle but still no luck. 100% ratio every time.

[KaktoR]

XTool oodle is broken (still). Hopefully razor12911 sort this problem somewhere in future

I am download this game right now again and will test something.

I can send you sample, save you some time and bandwidth if you wish.

oo2core_4_win64.dll, oo2ext_4_win64.dll

Wow! So if it can be precompressed with core 4, why does the game include core 6 (or are they interchangeable)?

Where can I finf a copy of ZTool since my copy doesn't have an Oodle option in the list of codecs? I currently assume UltraArc will have such a copy?

[KaktoR]

If I remember correctly oodle codec for ztool was standalone (seperated from ztool). I think it was a leaked version. Use the files from previous linked post.

And I don't know why it won't work with the o6 library. Just use the o4 library and all is good
