Data1a
common.rpf
x64*.rpf
update\*.rpf

Edit: Use srep instead of xtool dedup. At least for me xtool just crashes in the middle, even with low settings. With srep cls it is working fine.

It is more optimal with --mem=10p

[External compressor: xtool]
header = 0
unpackcmd = "{compressor}.exe" decode -t100p --mem=10p - - <stdin> <stdout>

Also, use the 32-bit version of SREP.exe.
