Example: I have Setup1.bin (11.3 gb), Setup2.bin (200 mb), Setup3.bin (400 mb), setup.exe
and I want to make them become something like:
Setup1.bin (4.3 gb), Setup2.bin (4.3 gb), Setup3.bin (3.3 gb), setup.exe

Is it possible without scripts, just by using a simple software?

Thank You

You can not change the size of an already compressed file * .bin.
The rationale is to compress and split the installation folder of the game that you have previously installed it your PC...

Actually I'm using DLG's Foldersplit and RDF, then I use a customized .bat file with this script to avoid precomp which is too slow:

arc a -ep1 -ed -r -w.\ Output\Setup_1.bin -msrep+exe+delta+lzma:a1:mfbt4:d256m:fb128:mc1000:l c8

I read somewhere in the forum to add -s12g -mt8 and replace d256m with d1024m what are these for?

So, to make .bin files to be around 4.3 gb to be burnt on dvd5s I just have to predict which will be compression ratio, I suppose...am I right?
