You can tell me on which files apply oggre_wwise? How to detect wwise audio?

@ZakirAhmad:

[External compressor:oggre]
header = 0
packcmd = OGGRE_enc $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

I don't know if stdin/out is compatible. You can test it.

Use oggre only. With lzma it is just a few MB, so not worth it after oggre.

does UELR work with unreal engine 4 or just 3?

BTW did u known the games on which oogre can be applied.

[KaktoR]

^On all *.ogg files obviously. Maybe game archive that contain OGG files too, but have not tested yet.

I saw games before with such file extension, .wise/.wwise or something like that. You will know when you see them.

As profrager described, this is how to use oggenc_wwise:
wwise files are ogg files without headers. You need to ww2ogg to convert those ww files to ogg. Then apply oggenc_wwise. For decompression, the wwise dec will restore them to ww files(not ogg files). You may need to create a batch file to automate compression process.


For normal ogg files, just use oggenc

UELR have a "l" option that supposedly process "only lossless recoverable blocks". To me this sound important as if without it recompression would not be 1:1 crc exact? But I see nobody use this option as mandatory. Does anyone have better insight into this?

[KaktoR]

Last time i checked it had no effect on crc (i used without -l option).

[ZakirAhmad]

i tried bpk on bk2 files of ac unity. it is not compresessing them showing motion video.

I'm trying to get UELR to work with freearc to add it to my compression script (Ultimate Conversion Compressor), but I'm running into problems.

The attached image below shows what I get when I try to use UELR with arc.exe (manually by running command from CMD).

My arc.ini for UELR is this:

[External compressor:uelr]
header = 0
packcmd   = UELR\uelr.exe u $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

My command is this:

Arc.exe a -ep1 -r -ed -s; -w"PathToTemp" -dp"PathToGameFolder" -muelr "H:\Temp\Test.bin" "*"

Any ideas what the problem might be?

Only works with Unreal Engine LZO Repacker files.

[External compressor:uelr]
header = 0
packcmd   = UELR uv Input Output
datafile   = Input
packedfile = Output

Not sure which games uses these type of files, can you give an example?

OK, thanks, I believe I have at least one of those, I'll use it for testing, hope it works correctly.
