mainly just a personal preference since I am using a SSD HR-DLC Loose Files = 4.48 GB BSA+ESP Files = 2.88 GB Skyrim - Textures Loose Files = 2.05 GB BSA File = 1.25 GB

Strange... Wrye Bash works fine with Skyrim - Textures.bsa but will not work for me with HighResTexturePack01.bsa or HighResTexturePack02.bsa

I am trying to do this now but when I archive the files with 7z and add them to Wrye Bash it will not install them and they show up on the skipped tab, if they are named the same as the original files? ex: Wrye Bash skips the file if it is named HighResTexturePack01.bsa or .esp. Change the name and it works fine. Anyone know why or how to fix?

After following this post https://forum.step-project.com/showthread.php?tid=228&pid=7820#pid7820 to optimize HRDLC1 & HRDLC2, is the preferred method still to install them as loose files? If using them as loose files, is there any reason to keep the original files (HighResTexturePack01.bsa, HighResTexturePack01.esp, HighResTexturePack02.bsa, HighResTexturePack02.esp) in the data directory or can they be removed?
