Hey guys, I've been trying to use fat2_fat3.bms with The Crew 1, and it all works great, except for the reimporting part, which never seems to properly work.

I did a basic check by exporting an archive then reimporting a single file from it without any modifications back into the archive, and the game fails to load it. I compared the new and old .dat file and they are different.

I'm fairly positive that I'm doing the reimporting correctly, so something wrong must be going on in the script? I'd like to confirm if it works or not at all, because I know not all scripts work in reimport mode, but I haven't seen aluigi or anyone else confirm that it doesn't work. To be completely sure I tried different versions of both QuickBMS and the fat2_fat3.bms script, but same result every time.

If anyone could please help I'd GREATLY appreciate it! This could finally allow the game to be moddable, and possibly help release it from it's always online DRM shackles so it doesn't just get shut down one day in the future and never be playable again.
