Maybe the time has come to start working with DSG and discover the true potential of this good piece of software Eventhough it has its limitations.

And btw, I got 40.5GB out of 46GB with LZMA and this whole process took 3-4 hours. For the pak's I used lolz because LZMA took an eternity to compress due to input data.

To summ it up:
ue4 on paks
ue5 on ucas

You can even use zlib or preflate after kraken to get some aditional MB.

Here my setting in DSG_setting, is this right?

It finally worked! Thanks to Mausschieber for his compressor and installer and thanks to
KaktoR for his DSG file.
