I'll try, might take a while though, I'll let you know.

I also have another theory that I intend to test.... The cls-diskspan.dll file I use is one I compressed using UPX to take less space, I want to see if the problem will happen with the original dll file.

UPDATE 1
Testing the different dll files was quite quick, it didn't help though, the access violation error is there no matter which cls-diskspan.dll I use.

Currently trying to test it with files not created with diskspan to see if it happen as well or not, it will take a while.

UPDATE 2
OK, when installing files not created with diskspan but leaving the diskspan dll file in the addon folder I get the same access violation error.

When doing the same thing but without the diskspan dll file in the addon folder at all however the access violation error doesn't happen.

So, basically, it has to do with the diskspan implementation obviously, which weird since other than the access violation error diskspan seems to work fine.

Hmm... I just noticed something, I seem to have somehow, accidentally, copied the cls-diskspan.dll not only to "include/addon" folder but also just to "include" folder, meaning I had it in both "Include" and it's "addon" sub-folder, I removed the one in the "include" and tested again, now the access violation error is gone.

Still, why does it pop-up a message saying "Uninstalling" before it starts to uninstall?

Music bug fixed, but when using equalizer on the small installer and starting the small installer part of setup with music OFF, the equalizer is initially invisible until you click where it should be to start the music again.

As for the "Uninstalling" popup, this is fixed as well.

I have a problem, when I use the latest compiler attachment you posted (http://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p...&postcount=184)

When clicking "Cancel" during small installer portion of setup I get a series of errors, I initially thought it's related to new files I added to the addon folder or new entry in arc.ini but that didn't help, only reverting back to original compiler helped.

Furthermore, the setup doesn't quit correctly after these errors, the small installer remain partially on the screen and the setup remains open in task manager.

Images of errors attached below:

Weird, I tested again with a different conversion and those series of errors didn't occur, maybe I had a typo or a missing/extra semicolon somewhere in the extract settings that caused it.

UPDATE:

Yes, yes I did, I had an extra semicolon, sorry.

I'm having a problem installing archive that was created with the UELR external compressor

I've added all needed files to the CIUv2.0.5g Include\Addon folder (cls-uelr.dll, timer.exe) so it will be able to unpack archive created with UELR, problem is I get an error during installation that say something like "archive corrupted decompression fail" (image attached below)

What's the way to get CIUv2 to install UELR archives?

Is it even compatible? or does it require the compiler to be updated for it?

[KaktoR]

It is compatible (installing ME right now compressed with uelr).

What parameters u have used in uelr?

Default from my Arc.ini file:

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

the method was something like this:

uelr+srep+delta+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d512m:fb247:mc10000:lc8+Diskspan:4370mb:4474mb

Have you tried without diskspan and/or delta?

Edit: I don't know if it matters, but i've included Unarc.exe too.

Unarc.exe already exists in the include folder.

From my experience having the same file in the include and the addon subfolder at the same time causes problems.

Anyway, I'll try different combinations of compressors and see.

Has the data any lzo streams at all? I saw that already on some other precompressor which compressed a streamless file and gave exact error.

I believe so, considering the fact that the game is borderlands the pre-sequel and it comes with ue3redist.

[KaktoR]

The question is: has uelr inflated game size? If not then uelr don't work, but i don't have borderlands so i can't test right now.
