This war of mine fading embers (with September update)

Method-

xtool(zlib):c128m:t2+srep:m3f:a2+lolz:dtb1:mtt1:mt 2:d192m:mc1023

Compression time: 2h ±11min
Decompression time: 2min
Final size : 3.11GB
After packed: 2.19GB

###if only 128kbps left in OsT folder and some unnecessary common redist files have been removed than it will save about more 400MB and than the final size would be around 1.75GB.

CrC ok and hashsum ok
