Zlib doesn't compress entire directories, only single datastreams, so just saying "use zlib to compress" isn't the whole story. You also need to know how the file table is built, how files are arranged, whether compression is per-file or overall, etc.

Just so you know, I think you mean "shall", not "shell" [smile]

Anyway, I'd be surprised if anyone here knew. We don't know the file structure or encryption algorithm. Without knowing these things, it's impossible to help you re-pack your files.

You shall either (a) find the information yourself on the internet (including learning enough to understand that information), or (b) find a packer on the internet, or (c) figure it out yourself from the game and data files directly, or (d) give up.

This unpacker you speak of, is it an actual product (commercial or freeware) or is it just a program that some guy made to specifically read and unpack the data files for this particular game? If the files indeed use zlib compression then there are lots of programs out there that can unpack and pack your files.
I used to mod GTA and a lot of tools used to do so are made my hobby programmers/modders in their spare time, because the data structure of the files is specific to the game. Fortunately however, GTA has a very large modding community so it's easy to get help with it. From the sound of it, DH2005 does not have a very large modding community, so you might have to figure things out yourself.

(a) no information in internett.

Well this is the first result that came up in Google when i typed in "modding DH2005":
http://www.moddb.com/forum/thread/dh2005-mods
I didn't read it all but some guy there (it's not you is it [grin]) asked about modding DH2005. He got a few responses.
