Well... there's actually an option to build a 7z file with no compression, but I didn't find it significantly faster on my computer. You could also modify the batch file to launch your mod with spr...

This script just simplifies the first part of that proces...

Thank you. That did solve that particular problem. I'm glad spring is still making logical progress to its script interface.
