FreeArc is correctly sorted files
Textures.pak
Textures_1.pak
Textures_2.pak
Textures_3.pak

solid .arc, bg3.xtl made of separated pak's
Compressed 4 files, 13,743,119,215 => 16,734,251,958 bytes. Ratio 121.76%

per file (not solid) .arc, bg3.xtl made of separated pak's
Compressed 4 files, 13,743,119,215 => 16,734,252,036 bytes. Ratio 121.76%
Code:
           Pos            Size      Compressed   Files
------------------------------------------------------
            31   4,293,937,007   7,285,063,990       1
 7,285,064,021   4,293,777,600   4,293,780,186       1
11,578,844,207   4,294,919,680   4,294,922,266       1
15,873,766,473     860,484,928     860,485,594       1
solid .arc, bg3.xtl made of joined pak's
Compressed 4 files, 13,743,119,215 => 16,734,251,958 bytes. Ratio 121.76%

per file (not solid) .arc, bg3.xtl made of joined pak's
Compressed 4 files, 13,743,119,215 => 13,743,127,639 bytes. Ratio 100.00%

so as you can see only first file (Textures.pak) is decompressed
and it's doesn't matter if you join all Textures*.pak to one file and made bg3.xtl from it
