I compressed fc4 to 14.1gb (FGs version). FG has extracted its contents and had compressed it to 11gb. That means with xtool u should have compressed it to 11gb (almost). Something is wrong with xtool or ur setting.

I'll be writting on Russian.
В принципе я понял к чему вы клоните. Сжвть игру с распакованными данными? Чтоб установка длилась часами? Я вас умоляю пускай такими извращениями FG занимается.
Что касается настроек XTOOL -она разжимает не все файлы (почему - я не знаю, все вопросы к Razor1911)
Вопрос на засыпку - вы в курсе какое количество файлов находится внутри архивов *.dat? для винтов это просто убийство...

Bro I didnt tell u to extract, I was only curious to know that ur packed game irrespective of using xtool is 13.5gb of size.
I compared it with FG repack is because after using precompressor u must get size better than FGs.BTW I too never like to unpack game files.

That fact that FG has extracted game files is a precompression in itself so your size should not be much different than FG's size considering you have good comp settings. I have myself achieved 11 GB for Far Cry 4 using both AFR and XTool but I forgot what settings I used.

I guess u r wrong, I myself have acieved better size (around 100 to 500mb )than FGs extracted game using precompression. I have seen FGs extracted files create diff files which inturn increase game size. (dunia precompressor ) (not AFR) by edison doesnt use same technique as razors xtool or ztool hence precompression done with edisons tool is pure and ultimate however with xtool razor has also polished it hence precompression done with it is also nearly equal to ultimate precompression.

Why do you forget the compression part in all this ? I see weak lolz settings around here that are not always enough to get size like FG even with improved and "ultimate" precompression. SRep settings also affects compression in FC4.. And those diffs that you are talking about are not that large. Make sure you had all the game files as in FG repack and tell me what compressed size you got.

Strong settings are as obvious, slow. I may not recommend it for personal use. Too much for small gain.
