I'm going to note, though, that modern mods can be many me...

Ripping from Sketchfab and other sites is against the rules. OP has been banned and this thread locked.

Optimization of "standard" formats (PNG, JPEG, WAV...) is well-explored in other projects, e.g. FileOptimizer (my current go-to, which you also already mentioned). Repacking of these files for use in games is going to be super game-specific - for one, it relies on repacking even being poss...
