@danziel123
The Method I used for Horizon Forbidden was xtool:kraken+srep+lolz on .core files
@71.8 Compression for a total size of 87.3 GB over 2 data files and 1 optional (digital extras)

-im sure there is a better method but i tried many

it took me several hours to compress as its a HUGE game..

Good Luck

xtool:c32mb:minsomniac+srep_new:393b+LOLZ_ULTRA

I got CRC error with package.00.03.core
I don't know if there are more files get the same error
so I used this method

xtool:c32mb:minsomniac+srep_new:393b+4x4:b96mb:lzm a:ultra:bt4:fb273:lc8:mc1000000:96mb

XTool:zstd оn *.cok files

It will require approximately 170 GB of free space for decompressed data and 90 GB for processing and compression.
To avoid a SREP error, use the -l1024 parameter

Mate, please show me what parameters would you use?

i use

xzstd+srep:m3f:l1024+lolz:dtb1:d128:mtt0:mt4:mc1023

probably something wrong

That's right, but this does not guarantee that there will be no errors from SREP. I got the same error again even when using l1024

maybe someone knows the best compression method for the game white day 2? This is the test file:
