Compress this game and you will see
I will cancel it as I am afraid it may contain errors

No problems here for me. Compressed

(not installed any patches) without images (maybe will do all game later since it causes problems for ppl) but non-latin feature does renaming of it all anyway (maybe I'll change it in future but don't see if it should be much useful).Bob69 also didn't reported any problems with renaming. Could be useful if u post ur compression settings for those game. Does ur game placed on HDD or SDD? Btw why it even needs to be compressed since there are v1.02 compressed and no "real" v1.04, only update patch for it.

Sadly for now I can't reproduce = can't fix (did u always tried with "clean" game installation or on same one after cancelling the compression?). I only can say that u most likely skipped some UAGC update and don't have most recent Renamemaster files (files numeration after renaming should start from 12345 or something but not from 01 that was in v2.6.6 and older):

so u can try to install it (by unpacking to the "UAGC_v2.6.9\UAGC\Scripts\rmv" folder with overwriting old files) but I don't think it would help u much but worth to try anyway.

I think "force recompile" is enabled by default when building with SDK from command line but my guess if u using it with "pack back to rpa" feature it wouldn't work and also if game scripts are packed to scripts.rpa file too coz SDK should unpack scripts from rpa to do rpy->rpyc files recompilation which I don't think is implemented in it, also there wouldn't any recompilation if game contains only rpyc (coz SDK need rpy to make rpyc), sadly I don't have MacOS for testing and not such big expert in RenPy as ppl that makes mods for games. Anyway I need proper bug report with links of affected games (preferably both problematic/compressed and working/original) to check something coz I have a guess that it has something to do with recent RenPy versions since I didn't changed anything for MacOS building for long time and I guess u also didn't got such reports before? Also I recommend to use "auto v2" for SDK detection coz sometimes RenPy version info from "script_version.txt" file is not correct (for example if dev updated RenPy version those file not always changes) - "auto v2" (saveable feature) takes version from renpy souce code. I think recompilation needed when RenPy version is upgraded and maybe if rpy files are changed but since nothiing like this happens during compression it probably coz of wrong RenPy version detection but since u didn't provided any links I can't tell for sure.

I'm guessing there might have been some, but there were mainly permission related issues.
This was the game that started the PM: Love Season: Farmer's Dreams [v1.7] [MuseX]
That one is in RPA, and another user noted start label issue here as well.
As for games, he gave me this example which was: Single Again [v1.22] [Clever name games], but did go on to say 1 out of 3 of mine would show cannot find the "label" cannot find start.
I did the "re-build" one and he saying they've been working, so it's kind of hit and miss if it's 1 out 3.
I also have no way to test, was going to install Mac on a VM, but never got around to it.

Since MacOS is unknown territory for me can't say much but probably it's really something wrong with permissions but maybe it can be fixed from MacOS terminal as this usually does for Linux, there are even some scripts made long time ago for fixing permissions but I dunno if it would help in this case (I know that that solution is for advanced users but would be interesting to check permission theory). And I'm pretty sure that since there are so much different MacOS versions (much more than Windows) so on some of it there wouldn't be any problem but on others would, maybe it's also not helps if game uses old RenPy version for users with latest MacOS and vice versa.

Yeah, this issue isn't permissions, as those are different errors, and from what more experienced in Mac-land have said, it's to do with Gatekeeper for permissions, and the oddball zipping Mac build on Windows.
I will do some more testing, if doing autov2, manual build, all lead to the issues still then I'm at a loss for Mac users, and it seems it's so sudden which is the weird thing and nothing has changed, and Ren'Py versions are all over the place.

Lol, it gives me flashbacks when Windows Defender prevented RenPy games to run, that was 1 of reasons I've switched to F-Secure. Btw do u know if anybody tried to

One of the people who've been helping other Mac users in the threads where there have been issues, has been pointing out to them how to do that, and also the permission fixer here on site or the command way to do it.
It started with those "market" builds on site not working on Mac, market builds work if you get them directly from Steam but not here.

Got this error while trying to compress (RPGM VX ACE) https://f95zone.to/threads/coming-of-age-v2-8-crazybat.1794/
Any idea what causes this?

I got that yesterday or the day before on an HTML game and forgot to make a note of that and the game itself.
I should also say, it completed it seemed like, did a test of the game and it gave no errors at the end.

It was small typo in pause.exe (in total images progress) not affecting anything regards compression process itself,

UAGC v2.7.0 (update only, install it on UAGC version 2.6.9 fix1):
Changes after v2.6.9 fix1:
- For RenPy engine compressor added "Store quality settings in compression profiles instead donoring" feature (to the right of "Video width"), also stores compression statistics
- For RenPy compressor Drag and Drop feature added ability to process zip files but only if it's created with SDK (zip file name and folder name inside it should be the same)
- Now it's possible to set UAGC start page (to choose what engine compressors you usually want to see right away) in settings
- For pause.exe fixed "pngg" error and wrong total images progress with webp images
P.S. I've made a video that explains better "Store quality settings in compression profiles instead donoring" feature, keep in mind that it has nothing common with "use old game as donor" feature and with donoring at all (just uses input fields of feature that was used for donoring before "use old game as donor" was implemented) and that you can update selected profile only by editing it manually.
