Well I want to optimize the meshes for New Vegas with Pyffi. I was kind of shocked to see that once I uncompressed the Meshes BSA that it turned out to be over a 2GB folder. I thought that much compression was a no no. I had a couple of questions and I kind of figured that this would be the best place to ask.

What is the limitation for the sarchive list in the ini? I know that you can only use so many characters but I forget how many/ Was it 255?
I would rather split up the Meshes BSA into two without any compression. How big is too big for a BSA?
If I do go the compression route how much compression is too much.

I've seen all of this answered here, probably more than once. Sorry to have to ask again.


Thanks in advance.
