Like i said, UltraARC just have Pcomp046 inside, nothing more (somehow it uses cls + exe for compression without any arc settings).

Try to use like this
MMC=PRMT+srep+lzma2

and check MMC in GUI.

As for MSC: You could find it in 0 + 1 + 2 txt. Just make sure you don't use DDS compression (it's buggy as hell in 0.0.6.4)

Edit:
You could also try with ArcGUI instead http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=98152
I think it's a nice UltraARC replacement (it's with masked compression too!! )

thats great one too, but just changing compressor.ini & config0.txt will allow ASIS to compress/decompress archives perfectly.

WOliveira
Replace these 2 files from INI.rar archive, compressor.ini goes in root of ASIS & config0.txt goes in Resource folder of UltraArc. you will need to recreate your steup.exe, as well as recompress your game, as the 2 files were not set properly to handle precomp. Use settings for UA same as in picture, then ASIS will be able to handle your archives, but NOT before, you have to re-do the archives.

ASIS then installs from the archives created without issue.

Okay, I'll try!

EDIT1: I tested it now, and apparently it was working out more by getting a certain% error. That mistake the "program has to be closed". What do I do?

I compressed the files now equal to the image of pakrat2k2 (SREP, LZMA and MMC)

never had any issues, not running anything else in the background, when compressing files or running the new setup?

I ran with everything closed and still gave error: /

EDIT1: I tested with the following methods, SREP, LZMA and MMC worked up to a certain percentage and then gave "program stopped working" error. I tested with
PreComp version 0.38 and 0.42 + SREP AND LZMA and both gave the isdone error that I posted the image before and last test only with SREP AND LEZMA and gave the following error (which for me was the first time, I think) that is in the image below. I forgot to mention that with SREP and LZMA it was up to a certain percentage and then it gave that mistake there.

Only use MMC alone!

Go to UltraARC\resources\config0.txt

Search for MMC=

insert

MMC=PRMT+srep+lzma2

That's the point of pZlib v3, a far better alternative of precomp with better speed even better speed than lzma compression.

your getting errors where you shouldnt, IE: just srep,lzma should be no issues, no errors as all.. ive used 10X more and never issue with install.

As for precomp, you said you tried with 38 & 42, did you rename them from precomp to pcomp ? the file in resources folder is name pcomp / pcompx64.exe, & if you didnt rename then it might have just used the same 46 version???
I went & got the 2801r3 version from UltraArc topic & use that version in all my compressions, also made the changes to text files i added, also KaktoR's change above. Tested every version of precomp with asis 7.01 & they all installed/uninstalled without issues..
Can you start over from beginning, getting the 7.01 from first post, use the UA version from the UltraArc topic, change those 2 files, remake archives... something is not right... Yes ive gotten setup is not responding a few times over the years,
but just restarting the setup again it finishes without issues.. Dont want you to have just updated from earlier version of asis, overwriting existing files just incase something didnt go right...

Interested in why you keep getting errors on basic compression like srep,lzma when it shouldnt have issues like you have.

Update v7.0.2 added

Also added a simple compiler.exe created with inno to compile the script if you don't have inno setup installed (and don't want to).

People, one more doubt kkk '. I compressed GTA V by the method they gave me and gave 16 DVDs, would it be possible to decrease the size for less DVDs?
