Total size saved?

[KaktoR]

Not count.

But with only 1 language final size is 85.4GB.

I would say something about 20GB saved (if not more).

[Snapppr6]

size 1.4 gb

repack 1gb

method
srep mtx rz or razorx

you can get it smaller by using xtool but slow in dec

oo2recm is slow af. I will post final results in the next days if I get some free time (pretty busy atm).

Thanks to my friend Masquerade

So basically, this game engine no longer uses LZO which means AFR is useless.

Now this engine uses oodle, and Valhalla has managed to use it without the oodle plugin.

Ubisoft use a different variant of this oodle 7 plugin, which only appears in one game AFAIK. This was probably released as the first iteration of their engine change. I think Valhalla is the first Oodle game that doesn't contain a plugin.

This plugin appears in Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and works on Valhalla as demonstrated above.

Here's the oodle 7 core you must use:

I use a different library (998KB) and it works too.
