i am not being dishonest about that repack it really is that size i am looking at it now what i don;t understand is why mine is smaller

At first, thanks for letting Grumpy restore the posts.

Different sizes could be so many things, maybe you have ripped some files? Also from my little experience, lolz should not give so hugh differences and not always higher means better (got some games on lolz with some mb less on low settings then on higher settings, strange...). I think the best thing is to know first how much GB the game has after installing, this way you know if your total game size matches Simorqs one, if not it could be dlcs, language files, etc..

I dont think that nobody here was saying that you were dishonest, simorq only said that it was wrong because he tested it too, i think he used your method and said that something was wrong, sometimes we can have even a typing error (3 is next to 4 on the keyboard). I dont have any of the Devil May Cry games, so i cant look to it too, never liked those games hehehe.

Do you actually check for crc on compressions? Sometimes it can happen that ultraarc doesnt include all files without giving error. I usually do a sfv file from the original install and check it on the repack (it tells if there are bad or missing files).

no i didnt rip anything i've always admitted to ripping recoding etc and i don't use ultraarc
what i use is a compressor based off one panker made
i redid the entire compressor with my own settings
and the tools i use i have gatherd overtime
as far as the crc no never check
apon installing the game is 24 gigs ran a test play off my last save file
nothing appeared out of place
