SA - Streaming size/archive size (IGNORE)

Why is it thought that there are two sizes in each directory entry? To me, the fact that the second size is always zero suggests that the two 2-byte size values are actually just one 4-byte value. If you read a 4-byte value there, you always get the same number as you would get by reading the first 2-byte value (by virtue of the fact that the second 2 bytes are always 0). Additionally, it would make sense for Rockstar to have used a uint32_t for the size, because they used one for the offset. All my tools use a uint32_t here and it has never caused any issues. – Squ1dd13 (talk) 20:37, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Game reads this as uint16.
