Try with xtool:kraken,l6+srep+lolz

:( Sad8669 · #**2867** 02-03-2022, 03:19

if you are using the newer xtool, make sure to use xtool:kraken,l6,n2

any have best Method WWE 2K22 ?

:( Sad8669 · #**2877** 09-03-2022, 05:28

A few hours till i get my hand on the sample, but usuallly game has oodle streams and some bink files (they are packed inside archive this time). if you have the game use oodle streams scanner to check for the file or check back this page after a few hours, they changed the engine too so lets hope for the better.

This game uses LZ4, why preflate?
