I wonder witch method Fitgirl uses to compress this to 16GB. I could only compress it to 23.5GB.
Until now!

hello
there is some *.sig files probably encrypted .pak

I managed to get it down to 19/20 GB, but it's not reliable; I'm getting CRC decompression errors.

I'll try with another approch today.
let me check

Hello
I probably find a start of solution
pakchunk0-WindowsNoEditor.pak if full of wem files who are riff wave.
can be extracted then processed with MSC.
theses files reduce the files size to around 17gb

I finish encoding and give my solution

Without having any of the files, I think there is no need for extracting the files if they are really in riffwave pcm format.

If the files are compressed just precompress and then use msc.

Looks like you should not use raw and wav detection together with single msc instance, which leads to unpacking errors.
