XTool 2020 (Plugins)

[Razor12911]

as I mentioned before, if you never specify what codecs (or streams) to be used from a plugin, they are all enabled so this means all the files are required to be present but if they are missing, like missing key or dictionary then that codec will be disabled, for example only fifa games require key and if the key is nowhere to be found then the key that corresponds to a particular stream will be disabled, otherwise everything else will work as they don't require the files. As for decompression, none of these files are required to be present.

Unravel 1 & 2

Instructions
Use Bms2Xtl on attached script to generate database and also make use of lz4x plugin for precompression.

Example

bms2xtl unravel.bms "D:\Games\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Unravel\kits\Unravel.kit" unravel.xtl

Notes

Both lz4x.exe and liblz4.dll are required for both encoding and decoding.

@Razor12911 How to decompress Unreal.dll method on xtool v18?

[External compressor:mele]
header     = 0
unpackcmd  = xtool decode -t100p - - <stdin> <stdout>

FreeArc 0.67 (March 15 2014) extracting archive: output.MSQ
Extracting 21 files, 7,781,670 bytes. Processed   1%
ERROR: general (de)compression error in mele

Unreal.dll is with xtool.exe...

Hopefully there is a fix without me needing to remake my archive all over again.

Here is a sample archive. It's compressed with just mele method:

[External compressor: mele]
header = 0
packcmd = "xtool.exe" precomp -mue3:m2 -c256mb -t12 - - <stdin> <stdout>

Unravel???!! Damn just when i deleted the game .

Here the ones i did before i deleted them.

Unravel
Unravel 2

The XZLib and precomp_mtx were used because it was giving like 100.02% or 100.01%, doesn't make a difference but i need to make every single MB count xD.
I once saw on QuickBMS web that Unravel contains LZ4 streams.

You do realize your archives are obfuscated? Can't open because of FA protect.

Compressed 1 file, 81,387,688 => 327,483,945 bytes. Ratio 402.38%
Compression time: cpu 0.08 sec/real 9.71 sec = 1%. Speed 8.38 mB/s

used 0.3.18, I haven't touched oodle nor the 2nd method of ue4 for this game since 0.3.13

Apologies, I thought I uploaded a clean archive.

Are the --dbase and --dedup parts required? I don't have those in my packcmd and the archive will not decompress.

[Razor12911]

no they are not, I just put the plugin near xtool after unpacking without really checking what command lines were used and it just works, and to confirm. I removed both --dedup and --dbase and still works.

Maybe send an archive without protection and I'll check

Guys guys, make sure that if there were any libraries used during compression that they are also present during decompression.

I was being specific that only database files (xtl) and configuration files (ini) are the ones that can be discarded.

I did some tests with the Unravel plugin.
These ratio results are normal (only inflate) for Unravel game?


For Unravel Two I always get the same error below 1% precompression:
I'm trying to compress the entire game folder.
PS: The files needed for precompression are together from XTool.


I tried to replicate the test with only .bat file but it didn't compress.
I attached the test using the .bat file I used.


If anyone knows what I did wrong, let me know.

Edit:
he results obtained for the final game "Unravel" were:

quick test
unravel 1
3.17gb to 4.68gb using munravel1 -c64mb without --dedup
then srep+lolz from 4.68gb to 2.04gb nothing rip include trial exe
srep:m3f:d1g:a2+lolz:mt4:mtt1:d128:fba4096:mc1023: pc4:gm20:dtb1:x2

unravel 2
6.76gb to 10.1gb using munravel2 -c32mb without --dedup
then srep+lolz from 10.1gb to 3.5gb...
srep:m3f:d1g:a2+lolz:mt4:mtt1:d128:fba4096:mc1023: pc4:gm20:dtb1:x2

decompress without error...

[Cesar82]

@Razor12911, about my previous post, I would like to inform you that the plugin is working with UnravelTwo just installed the game.
What happened was that I had the game installed on my system and with a PT-BR (tribogamer) translation applied.
The translation modifies 2 files in the D3D11kits folder (Data.kit and Data.kit.0).
I only tested including files in a "Pack" folder and there were no errors when compressing the "Data.kit" file.
Another file from the "D3D11\V" folder (0A6917B6) gives errors when compressing if I remove "Data.kit.0" from the game folder (this 0A6917B6 file has not been modified).
If I remove both files "0A6917B6" and "Data.kit.0" from the game folder no errors occur.
If you want to do some future checking in the plugin HERE is the sample of files changed by the translation and also the file "0A6917B6" (original file that had errors when it was in the folder).
PS: Unravel 1 also had the PT-BR translation applied and the plugin worked perfectly with modified files.

Unravel Two Precompression Result (Originals Files):
Method:  xtool:c32mb:munravel2
Input size: 7,05 GB
Output size: 10,41 GB (Ratio 147.66%)
Conversion time: 00:06:37

Make sure you have the updated xtool along with the required libraries and the game files should be original.
