XTool - Successor of ZTool

It doesnt work like that. FC2/3/4 uses LZOPRO while FC5 uses LZ4HC.

looks like someone is going to have to break down and get LZOPRO for razor...
i will check my monthly budget..

Fc234 do not use lzopro

Thank you Simorq for this solution but as KaktoR says it's slower.
What is surprising is that Pzlib V3 does not have this problem for this game.
I only created a new "xtoolslow" entry in the arc.ini for archives that have this problem.

Call of Duty IW test

europa_fatty_tr.ff:
ZTool: 38,489,248 => 85,959,469 => 39,719,836 bytes // negative ratio
XTool: 38,489,248 => 66,390,558 => 27,577,712 bytes

assetfile17.pak:
ZTool: 104,595,492 => 178,560,871 => 54,821,086 bytes
XTool: 104,595,492 => 139,027,892 => 33,859,574 bytes

thanks for xtool, diskpan.

I hope that soon you can compress the call of duty games....
thanks-thanks-thanksthanks-thanks

xtool v0.5 on doom file's gameresources.patch & gameresources.resources
erecomp:c256mb 9.20 > 19gb
erecomp:c128mb 9.20 > 18.6gb
erecomp:c64mb 9.20 > 16.6gb
erecomp:c32mb 9.20 > 14.4gb

*for optimal setting for doom use xtool only on gameresources.patch & gameresources.resources
need hif2raw_dll.dll, raw2hif_dll.dll

[External compressor:xprecomp]
header = 0
packcmd = xtool.exe erecomp:c160mb,t4:zlib - - <stdin> <stdout>

9.20gb > 19gb > 4.41gb , srep+lolz

*decompression seems to be very slow almost 20 min, xtool most of the time use only 11% with 438mb of ram...

unpackcmd = xtool.exe drecomp:t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>

that is a runtime file if i am not mistaken...
wich msvcrt is it? there are more than one

[KaktoR]

I've the same error. But it was only with cls-diskspan and razor's original batch (drag&drop bat). Custom works perfectly. Only sometimes it doesn't work, then i just have to spam the batch

[KaktoR]

Is there a option to skip the "CRC is broken" message and just left the CRC corrupted file there and unpacking next file? I aking because i could just use xdelta afterwards without all the hassle to find the one-working-option for every file. In my tests all xdelta dif files are just about 15-30kb in size.

I guess, FA will not allow u to do it. howver u can just use bat file to unpack xtool files and then use xdelta.

BTW, u will get crc errors, if u pack a file with xtool (say a zlib file) while cryla, liblz4 etc are also present during packing around xtool. and unpack with only xtool + zlibapi (excluding others).
