In this example I will choose the game "Hearts of Iron IV", which requires you to exclude a specific file for a given compression method, because of incompatiblities of OGGRE tool.

First run DiskSpan_GUI in developer mode. You have two choices how to make this.

• Hold CTRL key and double click on DiskSpan_GUI.exe
• Run the bat file "_Developer MODE.bat"

I created simple images because I think it is better to understand.

Personally I do all this stuff via notepad, because it is faster for me. Here is a example how it could look like if you follow above instructions.


With the above settings you can compress the game down to ~3GB, while plain packing with 7-zip Ultra preset it is ~3.4GB. So you save around 400mb size.
