Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is unarc.dll a virus? A: No. However, because it is used to unpack cracked game executables, antivirus software treats it as a "hacktool." It is safe as long as you downloaded the repack from Dodi's official site (dodi-repacks.site). Purpose: It handles decompression of archived game files

Q: I get error -14. What do I do? A: Error -14 is a write error. Your destination drive is either full, failing, or formatted as FAT32. Free up 50+ GB, run chkdsk /f X: (where X is your drive letter) in Command Prompt as Admin, or convert FAT32 to NTFS.

Q: The error happens at 99.9% installation. Why? A: This is almost always an antivirus issue. The installer saves the crack files (which alter game .exe files) for last. Your antivirus blocks the write at the final second. Disable AV and reinstall.

Q: I have 32GB RAM. Why do I still get the error? A: High RAM can actually cause the problem. The installer tries to load an entire 20GB .arc file into memory, hits a Windows memory management limit, and crashes. Use the "Limit to 4GB RAM" checkbox in the installer.
