Can anyone link the tool for BSARCH?
It was the only way I could optimize the textures, and BSARCH alone won't run without a command tool, or something like that. I don't know think the original post containing it exists anymore.

You're not opening it with command prompt. Navigate to the folder where you have bsarch.exe, then hold shift and right-click the middle of the window -> Open Command Prompt Here -> Type in bsarch and press enter to get instructions on how to use the tool.

Yea it works but it's fairly complicated for me. There was a instruction.txt file somewhere that was for NV only, and it worked like a charm. That's what i'm trying to find, but it was in a reply on a post.
