Full Method, Splitting, Finalizing, Compressing

[Dante1995]

Keep it up, we hope to continue this work, perhaps without using gui

Can you please post .iss for this example?

hi guys, i wanna ask something...

i have 1 very big files, and i want to split it into several .bin after compress..
so if i use the normal compressing method the setup.bin it produce is too large to burn into DVD5, the size is around 12-13GB after compress..

any solution guys ?

use ZIP or RAR, in winrar for example you can say how big one part of the compressed file should be. lets say 1gb, then winrar will compress the file AND will splitt it into 12 parts.

Installer Creator, BlackBoxscript and other programs, which support external archives can handle RAR and ZIP files

any plan on releasing the sourcecode ? from "old" and new version?
i´m interested in what you exactly did there

your program doesn´t copy files, it creates hardlinks in ntfs.
before i use your program i want to know what your RDF.exe is deleting, and why.
you can totally messup the original filestructureby deleting the wrong hardlink. (because deleting is unnecessary)

In the notes I recommended to uncheck (use Hard Links)..
What is the RDF ..?
1)Folder Game....."That contains 2 subfolders + Files A-H"
Folder 1 "contains" (A=10mb, B=20Mb, C=30mb, D=40mb)
Folder 2 "contains" (E=50mb, F=60Mb, G=70mb, H=80mb)
2)The program divides considering the size of the largest single file since it can not 'split the single file.
3)Then you will sum "A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H = 360mb/80Mb = 4.5 Folders "that the program rounds up to 5 Folders"
So:
Folder 1 = "A+B+C"
Folder 2 = "A+C"
Folder 3 = "A+D+H"
Folder 4 = "F+G+E"
Folder 5 = "B+C+D+G"

Now comes in RDF eliminates all duplicates in the five folders, leaving the individual files as well as real and 'the original folder including the size.

Before using RDF = "A+B+C" + "A+C" + "A+D+H" + "F+G+E" + "B+C+D+G" = 15file : 570mb

After using RDF = "A+B" + "C+D" + "E" + "F+G" + "H" = 8file : 360mb.

very simple

really good explained!

i encountered this exact "problem", with having 5 folders all 4gb big (20gb) - 6gb bigger than the original game.
i must say, directory slicer does a pretty bad job.

i use a program called "DVDspan", which does the same thing, but good. without double files and nearly perfect filled folders.
in the end it packs the folders in .iso files, which you then must unpack, but it gets the job done.

what i want to say is: after directoryslicer and doublefileremover (RDF.exe) i can make a better result manually, than leaving the folders as they were.
i compress with my own tools, so its not critisism to your work, more to the failed dream i had with directoryslicer being better than DVDspan.

in the end, splitting folders is work noone wants to do by themself :P

You're absolutely right I have not found anything better than directoryslicer.
Even (RDF) is not always precise.
I always suggest to check the number of files in the game with that uniform after using (RDF).
I compiled and tried many programs to slip folders of a game, but none that would work well for our work
If someone here on the forum could find or fill out a good program to split the folder of a game and then compress it would be great
you could add to the Kompressor that I created and to have a complete program that divides the game folder and compress all in short walk.

time to time
we're working to split a file is easy, it's hard to reassemble.in case uses arc..
for now you can use winrar or 7z or HJSplit

Hi guy,
i am stucking at extracting file
when i start extract, it(precomp) pops up: "incorret version of precomp.exe"
and then (ISDone.dll) says
"an error occured while unpacking: does not match checksum!
unarc.dll returend an error code : -12
error: file....
failed CRC check"

I am using win 7 - 64 bit
I used the compress method of : http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=96298
may this method not suitable for win 7 - 64 bit?
please help me

The precomp file used for compression must also be used for decompression to avoid that error

[felice2011]

Exact...!!!!
Copy of the same file "precomp.exe" located in "InstallFiles" inside the folder you use to decompress...
