I know what that LICENSE file is, it appears uelr have some problems either with it or what comes right after, it is the last file shown before the error occurs.

Anyway, diskspan can actually handle file exclusions pretty well, it's just a matter of using the correct command line syntax, which I have figured out.

The problem is that you'll need to create multiple diskspan archives, each with a different first disk size, a function that my compression script currently don't have.

So I either need to avoid diskspan or avoid uelr, I'll have to run some tests before I decide which one to remove from my compression.

Alternatively, maybe moving redist to disk folders and exclude them from compression could also work.

Anyway, if I'll have any more problems related to this I'll let you know, thanks for the help.

OK, it appears uelr in my case, even if I exclude the redists entirely, still produces the same error, it's always after the 5th file and always after a none lzo file (.bik file at last try).

So it's gonna give me a big headache using uelr, and considering that so far, even with uelr I couldn't get the game below 3 discs (just the 3rd disc size is much smaller with uelr) I don't see the point of pressing it any further, I just won't use it in this conversion.
