Maybe the problem isn't your file size but rather one specific file you did a mistake and made it crash? try instaling one by one to know exactly what causes your game to crash. thank you so much for helping me friend but when i replace a weapon that has a big size i try to delete some vertices to get smaller size and some weapon that got too big like 800kb made the ss_pzzl more than 2.7mb i started the game and it crashed and when i deleted some vertices from the weapon to get ss_pzzl smaller size ( under 2.7mb ) the game didnt crash after replacing that weapon . so, maybe the problem is not from a mistake xd

Maybe try this. One by one, replace each weapon with the PRL. (I think it is the model with the most polys). Do not edit the model in any way, but just replace other models. This will increase the file size incrementally. Kteo is on the right track by suggesting that you try another method of creating a new file. I am not sure my idea will work, but it is worth a try. To do this you could simply copy these files: ss_pzzl_130.BIN ss_pzzl_131.TPL and rename them to other files, doing it over and over. Another method that might work is to fill one of the DMY files (say like ss_pzzl_236.DMY) with a bunch of nul data (00 00 00 00).. just fill up the file in a HEX editor and save it. My assumption is that it will not interfere with the other items in the case, but will still count towards the max file size limit. Let us know if any of this works.

Done, i replaced all models with PRL without editing any weapon and the ss_pzzl size now is 3007kb and unfortunatelly the game crashed when i open the inventory

did you replaced one by one, repacking each time and opening the game to see if it runs fine?

maybe the problem can be with a specific file not modifying right. Please try the method i mentioned and report there what you got.

I appreciate your help, but I am 100% sure that the problem is not from a specific file From personal experience I tried to add a weapon to ss_pzzl file and the game started crashing, so I restored the weapon as it was and added another weapon that was less in size and the game did not crash And I added another weapon, bigger in size, and the game started crashing

Try the second method I mentioned with the DMY file. Write 00 for a whole bunch of offsets in HEX, save file, and repack the dat. Try huge first, if that fails, try making the DMY small and work your way up until it crashes.

Try huge first, if that fails, try making the DMY small and work your way up until it crashes. Can you elaborate on the explanation a little? I did not understand your method i think you have to download hex editor and edit a DMY file and write 00 , but idk where xd

open ss_pzzl_027.DMY in a hex editor add hundreds of rows of data into the file of: 00 like this
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
just keep adding them until the file is large enough, then save the file. THe amount of 00 above is about 6kb worth of data.

THe amount of 00 above is about 6kb worth of data. i did that and the ss_pzzl file now is 12mb and the game didnt crash , then what is the reason of the issue ?

not sure, but.... we know now that it is NOT the size limit. I think kTeo is onto something. Would you mind starting a new thread and asking for help with your SS_PZZL file there? Its just that this thread is for help with the DLL, and Im not convinced now that this is a DLL issue. Feel free to tag me and kTeo in the thread and we will help you. PS - can you do one thing for me? Can you disable the DLL and try to load that new 12mb file and see if it works? THis would be VERY interesting if it did.

I was hoping you could help me with two different changes I want to mod in to Resident Evil 4. I assume one is much easier than the other, but help with either will be appreciated! I want chickens to drop either white, brown, or gold eggs on death and I want the Matilda to be purchasable when the Striker unlocks on Round 1 (having it purchasable all the time is okay too). I don't expect a quick reply on this, but any help would be much appreciated! I'm using the Ultimate HD Steam version which might be why I'm having so many issues getting this to work.
