Testing should be enough. If you have anything other to contribute let me know.

Load preset from database.

Use only if you want to test. Don't expect everything works out of the box. Make backup of game files first.

Edit: Testing without wwise extraction works fine.

Someone test with wwise extraction because I won't do it.

I want to test using the Wwise extraction method; I have no idea how to go about it, but I want to try and learn. Can I do this using the DiskSpan_GUI v2.0.2.5_BETA application? I have absolutely no idea how it would work, though.
