Why i can't achieve the same size?
Hello,
I saw a file compressed using precomp+srep like this:
precomp+srep:m3f:a1+lzma:69mb:normal:bt4:128:lc8
the file contents original size is 2.3g.b and the result was 1g.b

i've tried to unpack the files then pack them using the same method above or some custom methods of my own but i always end up with a file size 2g.b

what are the factors that would make precomp detect more streams to downsize the file with such ratio?
Or in other words, what methods would have been applied on the file not appearing in archive info solid blocks tab?

Thanks.

Set/edit the button's X and Y Positions or it might be Left or Top Positions.

wherever you fond out about srep3.91BETA, should have the associated files needed for it there.

your arc.ini isn't right....

packcmd = srep {options} -m3f $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
unpackcmd = srep -d -s $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp $$arcdatafile$$.tmp

should work for any version.

I've tried this already but i always get this error:

What should i replace in my ISDone directory /includes other than arc.ini?

have you tested this with 3.91beta arc packed file?

if using inno script, the arc.ini has to be in setup folder too. ( in setup.cab )

I've used ISDone with many many archives already and they extract fine although arc.ini is not included in files list, how this is possible?
Is it because of CLS-srep ?

EDIT: i've included arc.ini and allowed to extract into /tmp and i got the same error.

Thank you for your help.
