Did someone tried using the unpacking/modding tools from RE7 on RE2R? I have made my own RE7 Gold repack into the 20gb (i think 20.1 or something), without it it would be 4-5gb bigger. Probably on RE2 you can apply the same method before using Xtool on it, at least i have already seen today some Mods for RE2, pretty sure there is already a way to unpack those .pak files.

@Masen485: You should already know after so much months here that this is not permitted

Let me know if you find something, i think there is something out, have seen some reworked textures yesterday so somehow they already managed to unpack them. Bit busy with other things but i will also take a look on this weekend. Not just for compressing the game, also taking a look how mod friendly this game could be.
