Thank you for this switch - will check it tomorrow.

I did it! Finally, after many attempts I managed to compress this game to repack the BB size, and more! My folder was about 1GB bigger (25.8GB), and I managed to compress it to 12.9GB - 0.2GB less than BB repack! Yeyyyy!



It seems that compression using SREP is more effective when we use it on a SINGLE LARGE file, rather than smaller packets of data. So first compress the entire folder with the game using 7z or arc (can't remember), without the compression level and then I treated this large single file with the SREP. It gave me the final file size 12.9GB.

The riddle was, at least partially, solved

And now there is another problem, but with this I invite you to THIS topic
