ultra fast
4x4 UltraFast: 4x4:lzma:a1:mfbt4:192m or 128m or 64m:fb273:mc128:lc8
Lolz UltraFast:lolz:tt1:d64m:mtt1:mt*:mc2
lolz UltraBestRatio: lolz:dtb1:d192m:mtt1:mt*:mc1023:gm20 - It's as if at most 192M is even better than 512M.

Also c128m is enough for this game.

XTool 02

These files should not be with XTool.exe
libzstd.dll
liblz4.dll
lzo2.dll
oo2core_4_win64.dll

I Did these works and finally the conversion didn't stuck.

Dishonored 2
Gamesize without credit: 41.4GB

method:
xZLib+lolz:tt1:d64m:mtt1:mt4:mc2

18:02:21 - Starting Archive Creation
1:20:17 - Conversion is Finished
1:20:17 - Original Size: 41.520g
1:20:17 - Compressed Size: 22.290g

I'd to replace this xtool v2 and remove those file from xtool directory of CIUv2 to compile the installer, if I didn't do this, I would get error code 11 while installing the game

Hello everyone,
and for Frostpunk (steam) please what is the best compression?
because I did not see this information in the forum.
cordially

KaktoR · #**1084** 20-12-2018, 08:45

Should be zlib(xtool)+srep+lolz

Important note:
there is a "Uninstall_BattlEye.bat" in "BattlEye" folder. make sure it includes with other file while compressing the game. if not, the game would not run.

You have to seperate "QtWebKit4.dll" from XTool (you will get crc error on this file everytime with all settings).
