Hm difference is about ~4mb.

I guess i should use lolz then...

KaktoR, play with l16,l32...l2048, m3f, m4f, m5f options of srep and see if improves.

I have read somewhere Bulat recommans srep settings as
srep:l512:c64
it produces best output without damaging 3rd compressor (like lzma or lolz ) input file.

:confused:
for better compression l > 512 because d512m
srep:m3f:l1024:c64:s35000000000:a0/0:slp-:hash- or m5f:l2048
-hash-: don't store/check block checksums
-slp[-/+/]: disable(default)/force/try large pages support (2mb/4mb)
-a0/0 - disable accelerator
-sBYTES: explicitly specify filesize (for compression from stdin), by default
25gb

KaktoR 26-05-2018 15:07

lolz is about 6mb larger than lzma, but i've used just standard settings. lolz needs three times as much as lzma.

Will play around with srep. My standard was always just m3f

but decompression speed higher lzma.

KaktoR 26-05-2018 15:29

Another question: what is good for pck (audio) files? I've used just srep+lzma for this, while srep alone gives most times up to 10% ratio.

Andu21 26-05-2018 15:45

Try OGGRE and MSC.

common.dat

This files decompress with XTool+lzo codec (thanks to Razor1911) and compress with srep+lolz

Other all files - srep+lolz
Install time - 12 min on HDD

I compressed fc4 to 14.1gb (FGs version). FG has extracted its contents and had compressed it to 11gb. That means with xtool u should have compressed it to 11gb (almost). Something is wrong with xtool or ur setting.

I'll be writting on Russian.
В принципе я понял к чему вы клоните. Сжвть игру с распакованными данными? Чтоб установка длилась часами? Я вас умоляю пускай такими извращениями FG занимается.
Что касается настроек XTOOL -она разжимает не все файлы (почему - я не знаю, все вопросы к Razor1911)
Вопрос на засыпку - вы в курсе какое количество файлов находится внутри архивов *.dat? для винтов это просто убийство...

Bro I didnt tell u to extract, I was only curious to know that ur packed game irrespective of using xtool is 13.5gb of size.
I compared it with FG repack is because after using precompressor u must get size better than FGs.BTW I too never like to unpack game files.

That fact that FG has extracted game files is a precompression in itself so your size should not be much different than FG's size considering you have good comp settings. I have myself achieved 11 GB for Far Cry 4 using both AFR and XTool but I forgot what settings I used.

I guess u r wrong, I myself have acieved better size (around 100 to 500mb )than FGs extracted game using precompression. I have seen FGs extracted files create diff files which inturn increase game size. (dunia precompressor ) (not AFR) by edison doesnt use same technique as razors xtool or ztool hence precompression done with edisons tool is pure and ultimate however with xtool razor has also polished it hence precompression done with it is also nearly equal to ultimate precompression.
