Is SRep 3.93A Incompatible with pZLib v3?

[:( Sad8669]

If you have a small sample of your data files, i can run some tests in my PC.

Must be in MB's.

I know small files decompresses properly, but still there may be a slight chance.

Put your data files in this folder "Test" and edit unpack.bat to match your data files with it.

If any error occurs, please report back.

1st Time SRep gave that same error so i added "-hash-" and it worked.
Now pZlib is stuck like this Only consuming 43MB Ram and a 3Mb $arctempfile$

So another thing is that i killed the executables that were running via Task Manager and managed to Copy pzlib executable to the temp dir but it was still stuck there. Then i copied the temp file and gave it a go with pzlib again and pzlib then decompressed the file without any error, but the output file is still corrupt even tho it's the right size. I tried opening with all the programs 7z, Rar, FArc but all of them said it's corrupted so i think it's SRep is what is giving me the issue. Because i force it to not check the CRC with -hash- and it probably outputs a broken file but i don't know how pzlib still completely decompresses it.

Copying the executable to temp directory won't do any good.

Try using a different version of PZLib, since i am short on samples i can't figure out the problem with those bigger archives.

Plus, compare the results of my Test.rar vs your old way of decompressing, i want to know if there is any progress.

And don't get the wrong idea, i am not too good but i think this problem can be dealt with as long as the archives aren't corrupt.

Can you make me a installer, which has SRep and PZlib extraction in it? My installer is really bugged atm, and doesn't seem to function properly. I'll see if there's anything else that i can do.

[:( Sad8669]

Sure, but lemme know how many data files you got there.

List them or take a screenshot.

Yeah, i will hook you up with the setup once and i get some free time.

[:( Sad8669]

Okay, so here is the installer. A few points noted.

. Older pZLibv3 would make the installer crash.
. CLS-SREP.dll is used because older one's were giving error.
. I made the installer so it recognises "Setup-1.rpk".
. WPI by Razor12911 and Modified by bunti_04u Used.

Here is the link.

CLS-SREP.dll (86 KB).
pZLib.exe (1990 KB).

[External compressor:pzlib]
header = 0
unpackcmd = pzlib d -t4 - -o - <stdin> <stdout>

Please report back, if you find any errors.

Pzlib ... I don't have a PzLib on my FreeArc. I'm still missing that.

Would someone please be so kind as to post the Arc.ini entry to compress and decompress?

[:( Sad8669]

pZLib isn't used anymoe, we have better precompressors now such as XTool, OodleRec etc
Thanks to Razor12911.

So it's still giving me CRC Error -12


Now the only thing i can think of is could be be the windows? Because back in 2015 i did a BattleField 4 Repack with Precomp+Srep i compressed and compiled the setup on Windows 8 i guess, and when installing on Windows 10 the setup was failing Precomp decompression but was working on Windows 7. I double checked that. So the last thing i can think of is that. I'll see if can Dual Boot Windows 10 for this, and let you know if there's success.


Thank you so much for your time tho, i really appreciate it.
