Got this compression ratio for the .pak file on Hellblade 2: Senua's Saga
for .ucas file we need to apply UE5 compression, but require key for it.

Kraken+mermaid+zlib on *.ucas and *.utoc file is of no use (the ratio remains almost same for them even if you use srep+lzma2), as the file is locked for compression. Use it just for your *.pak file to significantly increase your decompression time.
There is even no use of applying lolz as well, as the compression time increases with very negligible less compression ratio.

What are you talking about? This is simply not true!

Compare results from Danziel123 and this here

Code:
 20:28:37 - Selected ARC/DS method for Data1a-01.bin was: xtool:dd3+lzma2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We both are using different files for Data-01. I only have *.ucas and *.utoc
Whereas, Danziel123 have *.ucas, *.utoc and *.pak

Danziel123 got 38GB, I was able to manage it in ~40GB.
Data-01 > *.ucas + *.utoc + everything else > ~28GB
Data-02 > *.pak > 7.7GB (using kraken+mermaid) / 8GB (using zstd+srep+lzma2)
Data-03 > *.bk2 > 4.95GB

Normally, I wouldn't waste my time again getting that low compression ratio on *.ucas with kraken+mermaid. Logs for my Data-01:

Yeah, first, most likely because you used the wrong oodle library unless you replaced them manually beforehand.

Second, why the hell you set level 7 as compression level?


Third, I really don't know what your method here (zstd+srep+lzma2) is about at all.

Last but not least, you said
Quote:
Kraken+mermaid+zlib on *.ucas and *.utoc file is of no use (the ratio remains almost same for them even if you use srep+lzma2)
We both have proven that this is just wrong. I wouldn't say at least 2GB "is of no use".

Edit: And because I just saw it, using binkpack (or xtool bink plugin) "is of no use" here at all. See


Edit 2: Here is the final proof. I used the same method as you.
Your result

I might try this given the ~2-3GB difference and the rigorous algo for high compression/decompression time. Thank you for the info though.
