As it was stated at least 20 times before, models.pck over 2 GB won't be openable normally anymore.

Please search next time.

cmd: copy /b models.pck + models.pkx tempmodels.pck
drag tempmodels.pck to your spck folder and extract it, how to repack it and split it back to 2gb file is up to you.

but for god sakes man this has been asked over 100x before, so requesting this thread to be closed. (I can make requests right? lol)

Oh for sure

[s]closed[/s] but btw, if you take the last client v80 merge the PCK and PKX and re-compress them it will be under 2GB, so no need to re-split. You can actually get it the smallest by using pwpack '08 and using the 'level 9 compression' ("PWPack.exe -z 9 -c models.pck.files models.pck").. If you do that your new models.pck should be exactly 1,701,129,352 bytes, or 1.58GB (if you're using a virgin models from the last v80 client)...

Now also, admittedly, I'm not sure exactly how you would split once over 2GB because I ran -z 0 (for least compression) and the file was huge. So I split it at exactly 2GB and the client would not start. So I don't think splitting it at exactly 2GB will work and I couldn't really be bothered to figure it out...
