Sorry for long Questions.

If I have a game say "Grand Theft Auto San Andreas". How could I repack it ?

I dunno if 1.5gb is possible for san andreas, at least not for the most current PC release (v1.0.0.22). I was able to get it down to 2.87gb from 4.58gb, with xtool you'll want to use the zlib codec for that title.

Here is another unity sample, it should decompress to 254MB however xtool can only get it to 122MB.

I have tried many liblz4s (including the one you gave me last time). The most recent dll gives the highest size.

How to repack a game highly compressed ?
You Tell step by step.(Please provide files used for compression ) I don't know much about repacking.
For example a game alien shooter.

Create a repack and provide me. Can you repack it to less than 10 mb.
Please provide the steps.
Setup may be like Fitgirl or normal installation ?

Do not post full game links.

You need to read/search the forums for the answers you are after, all the information can be found on the forums, you can not expect to come onto a forum and have members take there time to just answer your questions without doing some of your own research first.

I have been trying for a long time to use the latest version of xTool for LZ4 compression. Unfortunately, no results. I did a short test with a sample. Only the older xTool can handle it. My question is, am I doing something wrong? Bad syntax, parameter? I've tried multiple versions of liblz4.dll and unfortunately no result. In the test, I used the latest version of the liblz4.dll v1.9.3 library on all xTool versions. And only one brings results (v0.12). The question is what am I doing wrong?
I enclose a link to the sample and test

And the contents of the test script

xtool_0.3.03_hotfix\xtool.exe precomp -mlz4 -c1024mb -t100p "sniperescape.ff" xtool_0.3.03sniperescape.ff.unlz4

Do you know the best compression method ?

[sajmon83]

Game Repacker One way to find the best compressor is to try it out (or possibly knowledge of the engine and its compression method). One of the more important methods is the precompressor (if there is one). Let me give you a simple example on the CoD 4 MW Remaster. All * .ff files 10870.08Mb I passed through precompressor (most files are already compressed precomporsssor such as xTool can extract these files) xTool_lz4 which gave me a result of 24633.98 Mb Then I used srep (the tool finds the same files and duplicates) which gave me 9113.11 Mb. And for all this I use the LOLZ compressor (currently one of the best compressors for graphics files) which gives me 2,766.74 Mb which gives an amazing 25.45% result. But not every file type gives the best result for LOLZ compression. For some it is a razor compressor for others LZMA and different for audio files. There is simply no one method.

There's a great FitGirl post on the web about compression. I recommend you to find it and read it there is probably everything you need to know about compression these days ^^ And I think that as simply as it was explained there, it cannot be easier ^^ And above all, beautifully written

What code used for xtool?

[sajmon83]

Run xTool in cmd xtool precomp and xtool decode
You will see all the information about the xtool or run xtool.chm which also contains most of the information

[Game Repacker]

I used free arc to compress GTA San Andreas. from 4.5Gb to 3.3 Gb.
Can I use precomp+srep+freearc for a better one?
Which one would be the best process?
Please tell me.

[Game Repacker]

I got the files used by fit girl repacks. I providing files but don't know how to use these files.
These files I found in the temp folder during the installation of a game from the official website.
Files below.
