More than an Update seems to be a Downgrade, I enjoy working on pzlib, great Razor.

Downgrade in what way? I just removed options that you guys have no knowledge of how they are used then complain afterwards. For example, I've seen most people using 's' when I specified that the option is only for the game DOOM. Otherwise it messes up ratio. I've seen people setting things like b4096m or even c4096m. Pzlib will obviously crash. Maximum chunk size of program is 1792mb. And even that is very high because there are no streams in games that big. The changes now allow you to use 400mb chunk size for DOOM rather than 600mb or 700mb to capture all streams. So the only thing I did was make program decide by itself for all the options I removed.

X64 DLLs can only be imported by x64 executables -_- CLS x64 can only work with x64 arc.exe and unarc.DLL x64

This is where this comes in http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=99263

@everyone
If CRC errors are gone, then bug was caused by multi threaded scanning and/or processing. Threads tend to disturb each other since they are using the same data and info to function. Problem isn't related to I/O

It was a sarcastic joke, obviously for the options you've taken away, and not added.

Is any chance for a pzlib like preprocessor which unpacks ZSTD streams ?

can't set number of thread for the new cls-pzlib.dll ?
using pzlib with arc.ini set t100p is much faster...
is there cls-pzlib.ini option ???

Hi everyone! Thanks Razor again for all the work done.

I've got a question regarding the CLS. I've taken a 3GB data and compressed/decompressed via .exe and .dll. So, CLS decompresses data 2 times slower.
  • I've used x64 executable, x64 cls and x64 lib. dlls for compression.
  • During decompression I am using x86 cls.

Using x64 cls gives me CRC error at start and afaik it is not possible to use it with x86 unarc. What suggestions do you have to get nearly (not same) decompression time as in case with .exe?

And am I using the correct files for decompression process?

Thanks Very Much ... Extract Perfect ... Finally
Can you please provide the code & resource files you used in your script that you used to decompress the pzlib based archive. I'm suffering from the same issue, my installer can't extract. I'm just asking for the required code and resource files that instruct the installer to extract the pzlib archives.
Please..
