KaktoR,
Actually, it isn't the first time xtool:kraken is yielding better results than XTool.
Take a look at this, it is a sample from
WWE 2K19.
XTool - Kraken
Code:
Compressed 1 file, 3,291,136 => 21,504,257 bytes. Ratio 653.40%
Compression time: cpu 0.00 sec/real 15.72 sec = 0%. Speed 0.21 mB/s
All OK
OodleRec - Kraken
Code:
Compressed 1 file, 3,291,136 => 5,251,731 bytes. Ratio 159.57%
Compression time: cpu 0.00 sec/real 4.97 sec = 0%. Speed 0.66 mB/s
All OK

you are kinda right about bpk, had same issues when i tried it on WDL bpks.
I guess encoding bpks is the only option we have, if the game accepts the encoded ones ofcourse.
