i had multiple issues with the execution options in general including the ones using xtool.ini, some exes using xtool.ini seem to get confused with the in-out like tak or ofr, the only one i actually got working for wav was wavpak. in some versions the exe options kinda work wile in others not at all. i now just use mtx for mt, msc for wav and biks in containers i just extract myself to save jumping around xtool versions.

edit:
after changing xtool to version 086 all the stuff i could not get to work before seemed fine.

do you know how to use the new feature zipcrypto ?

^^
It must be used via plugin, configuration or database. It cannot be called directly.

I understand that you have to use bmscrypt and zip.bms + password.
I've also started a draft ini file but it's a bit dry....

But anyway, with my ugly method and block processing, I've reduced the game to 9.7GB, which isn't so bad.
The only problem is that the CRCs are different, which could pose a problem for future updates.
but not for sure, updates are patch_00x.pak files that are added...
it's not really for the game itself but more to understand the process and improve...
