DiskSpan GUI

Could you send me some sample files to test with? If that happens on any single files from the game.

Current version FH5, your database settings, after the first data file prepare and LOLZ compress are both successfully complete, it tries to write out an ~80GB file (from 130GB) using FAZip.exe and fails immediately. So it is not any input file in particular but the part of the creating the final bin file process that fails.

Anyway I have added those 2 apparently missing DLL files to the Win64 folder and am running it again. As this is 170GB source, it's going to take ~5 hours to see if it now completes.

Maybe FAZip is only used above a certain file size or something if it works without this for you? I guess Cesar would know.

You can see for what fazip is being used in DSG_Arc.ini file (search for fazip).

I have not changed the INI file from the Beta you posted above, bar I tried changing the FAZip32 entries to FAZip, but it still crashes even with those DLLs now in the folder.

Still doing it, can't work out why:

Does this happen on a single game file aswell? (Instead of the whole game).

Still isn't right after much trying. Going to reset Windows to make sure it isn't OS related.

So did a reset, installed almost nothing on OS, still get the same issue with FAZip. However if I pick a smaller subset of the game, it completes, so assume it's in someway size related.

So, if I don't use Xtool it works. If the output of Xtool is less about 30GB it works. If output of Xtool is greater than about 30GB (after mzlib preflate) then it fails.

Do you have enough free disk space?

I tested here and it works as it should (compressing right now).

[KaktoR]

I did the same again and fazip is not even used here, and I am using the same settings as you. So I don't really know what's wrong.

Yeah like 1TB. And its on completion it crashes - when it tries to make the actual datax.bin file.

Not sure you have visibility unless it presents a message - seems to be part of DiskSpan internal process. Anyway I am breaking it into multiple related parts which seems to work fine.

On that note as a feature request it would be useful to be able to re-run just selected data tabs from the GUI without killing any existing data from the others.

Issues finally sorted. Needed to disable all 14900 "efficiency cores" in BIOS to stop DiskSpan-GUI crashes, and doing that then causes windows to crash unless I disable "multicore enhancements" (all cores now run at same speed). Guess that's a BIOS bug but took me forever to work out. Now it all works for any file size.

(Process Lasso is not enough. Although it did make it crash less.)

Hi, is it possible to rename compressed files without going into developer mode, i.e. not Data-01.bin, but data1?

Hello
I found two small bugs in version 2.0.2.0:
if I select srep_new:393b with the choose option, there is an error during processing
in error log :

Compressing 2,059,891,148 bytes with "OTHERS\SREP\srep.exe" -393b  InFile OutFile
  ERROR! Invalid option: -393b
Errorlevel=2
ERROR: general (de)compression error in srep_new:393b

Fo bypass this , I changed {option} to -m3f -a0/0 in DSG_arc.ini

and the other bug, it's when compress fail and click on "retry", it not restart.
I need to quit and restart...


By the way, it works well
nice job
