Grand theft auto 5

Then change the compression for the very last dvd (14) and add all the rest of the files to the last lst file. Without compression it was only 2.5GB so unless all the files your adding don't take up that much space then shouldn't be issue.

update\x64\dlcpacks\mpreplay\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\mpluxe\*

But there are still 577MB files in dlcpacks. I don't know where to put them. These are the following:

update\x64\dlcpacks\mphalloween\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\mpluxe2\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\patchday4ng\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\patchday5ng\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\patchday6ng\*
update\x64\dlcpacks\patchday7ng\*

My goal is to have a set of DVDs where I don't need to update anything (at least until next patch/DLC).

Don't take me wrong, but you can also choose another conversion that uses UltraARC.
There are many GTAV conversions in FF

Well, when adding everything, the CAB-File was around 4.9GB or something. But I will take a look at compression methods with ARC. (I'm not experienced using this software. Maybe someone can make a suggestion what compression method to use? )

Oh, btw: I used this compression since it looks the best. I don't really want to switch to another setup.

[GTX590]

OK!
Read this:
This is the compression I used:
GTAV_1 (Disc1)=srep+lzma
GTAV_2 to GTAV_14= no compression (Disc2 to Disc14)

To change compression of "GTAV_14" do this!!
1-Right click on "compress.bat" and choose modify.
2-Scroll down to Data14 section and change:
from
arc a -ep1 -r -w.\ [email protected] -dp"%choice1%" .\GTAV_14\%arc%
to
arc a -ep1 -r -w.\ -msrep+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:lc8 [email protected] -dp"%choice1%" .\GTAV_14\%arc%

Please test and report back!!!!

Thanks GTX590. you're awesome

i've just one question. Does it make a problem for installation if I edit the "compress.bat" and change the "cab"s extensions to "bin"?

I don't think so!!
Unless you change compression method.
I think it's better to test and then feedback.

So I changed the cab to bin and did the conversion and it was OK but the setup file is looking for data.cab so changing the cab extension is not useful.

I think I must do the conversion without changing anything. Thanks again for your hard work

[GTX590]

For .bin extension to work, I have to change the extract settings in Setup.ini. This latter is merged into Setup.exe in first folder.
That means I have to upload another Setup.exe that will handle .bin archives.
