Sorry for dumb question, how to cut the big files? Here i send sample earc and bk2 files
bk2: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ueY...ew?usp=sharing
earc: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1y8O...ew?usp=sharing


Sorry, but how to use it in DSG? Thank you

There is a file cutter somewhere here on fileforums, shared by Razor12911, which I personally use.

For the earc files use like this

xtool:mlz4f,l9:lz4_183

For the bk2 files you have to use xtool aswell with the bink plugin because bpk will break the file on unpacking.

xtool:c256mb:mbk2:df20p

However I suggest to test all of the bk2 files first. In DSG_Settings.ini set it like this and select the game folder normally (this will only compress *.bk2 files). Test compress and decompress. Maybe it is required to set the correct chunk size too.
