No, unfortunately the way DriverPacks BASE and DriverPacks Finisher are coded the D\3\ folder structure is hard-coded into both apps for KTD compatibility.  A rewrite of both would be required.

Note: in the past you didn't have to use the "3" subdirectory. This is now a requirement, to make the KTD functionality compatible with the Third Party DriverPacks

Yes I know
And use KTD  for my own pack. All another 3DParty Packs I install after Windows with Drivers Installer Assistant by Romeo91 
If such a little  modification of DPs_BASE is not comprehensible I will be disappointed

No, refer to the tutorials I linked above on Third Party DriverPacks building.
This Should be the new layout:
+D
---+3
------+B = Broadband Pack
------+BT = Bluetooth Pack
------+H = Human Input Device Pack (aka HID)
------+M = Modem Pack
------+Mo = Monitor Pack
------+P = Printer & Phone Packs
------+S = Scanner Pack
------+T = TV Pack
------+TS = Touch Screen
------+U = USB Pack
------+V = Virtual Pack (aka VMware)
------+W = WebCam Pack
------+X = Misc Pack

Although instead of using D\3\Mo (Monitor), I suppose we could use D\3\D (Display).  That might help a bit.
Oh, and including contributor names in parenthesis is acceptable (Mr_Smartepants).

We can reduce all  3rd Party path by changing a structure in a next way:
+D
------+3B = Broadband Pack
------+3BT = Bluetooth Pack
------+3H = Human Input Device Pack (aka HID)
------+3M = Modem Pack
------+3Mo = Monitor Pack
------+3P = Printer & Phone Packs
------+3S = Scanner Pack
------+3T = TV Pack
------+3TS = Touch Screen
------+3U = USB Pack
------+3V = Virtual Pack (aka VMware)
------+3W = WebCam Pack
------+3X = Misc Pack

SAD is the replacement for KTD

OK, but I should now duplicate a number of  drivers from DP into SAD folder too

Is it possible to implement this method - SAD folder creation, moving selected Packs ( compressed in CABs or not) and  execute devpath - into Finisher instead of "unworking" KTD?

I use now DP_Base8.12.4 with old 8.12.3 DPsFnshr.7z and there is no hundred of driver signing popups on first boot.

SAD M1 is a superior solution? lol?

KTD always works fine for me ... with all previous DP_BASE versions
Why  DP_BASE_8.12.4 Change Log describes only Language updates?

I use some USB devices and their KTD support is usefull for automatic driver install on first device connection. SAD is not suitable  solution
And I need to return on 8.12.3 sad

I don`t think that one DriverPack for all drivers is a good idea

IMHO a number of users integrate all the Packs like me and need to DL such a superfluous size DriverPacks (at least 240-200=40MB now)
Some can use DriverPacks for 1-2-3 mashines and don`t need ATI drivers (as a example) at all

May be it would be better to provide 2 different sets for Graphic DriverPacks on DL server (and look through DL statistic)
... at least while we have no xdelta files

Similar sequence of codes are in ATI`s  .sys, .dll files. The same is true for nVidia

Original 8.12 Graphic Packs occupates 62,014+97,314+84,327 = 243,655KB
but repacked ATI+nVidia+Others only 75,975+60,585+67,966 = 204,526KB (I use 64MB dictionary size insted of 1GB smile )

Personally, I'd recommend at least 512 MB to run XP on, but 256 should be ok, if you don't do anything on it tongue

Anyway, I see 256 MB as the bare minimum (I think it's also the official one, below that XP will not let you install it unless you manually eidt the limit) so if we are going to change compression settings, we should not aim below that.
Anyone who is willing to run XP on less memory is either totally incompetent (unless it's the Embedded Edition maybe) or asking for pain.
In that case, we should not deny them that wink

Don`t forget about W2000 users

If we want to get smaller Packs, it`s better to repack аll Graphics in another order rather then with large dictionary size
7-zip archiver gives better compression on similar files so i suggest to combine all ATI drivers into one Pack, nVidia into second and all others into third

256MB dictionary size seems me to be a more then sufficient in any case

Also I always repack all Graphics into one Pack with 64 or 128 MB dictionary size and never seen a large difference in Pack sizes smile

[Are you really sure about that?

I see memory usage in TaskManager
With my 640MB of RAM  it indicates a rise from 330 up to 1080MB  for DP_Graphics_B_wnt5_x86-32_812.7z decompression (with visible swapping )
and up to 725MB for DP_Graphics_A_wnt5_x86-32_812.7z (unsufficient swaping)

Repacked with 64MB dictionary size DP_Graphics_B_wnt5_x86-32_812.7z requires about 60MB of RAM  to decompress ( smile as it was figured in  7-Zip GUI )

mr_smartepants, decompression speed sufficiently decreases in the case of RAM deficit (due to swapping) and slightly when limiting factor is CPU
Take into account that PE environment occupates some RAM too

Helmi, look at last DP_Graphics !
DP_Graphics_B_wnt5_x86-32_812.7z  requires ~750MB to decompress
what size of dictionary is used?!

Also: the extraction routine will cause low memory warnings on 512MB RAM machines or less! It still finishes unattended but perhaps something as robust as this method should have a minimum requirement of a 1GB RAM PC?

The ammount of memory needed  for 7z decompression depends on comression degree (size of dictionary)
A  liittle decrease of dictionary size lead to little increase of DP size (and must speed up decompression )
It would be more reliable for low RAM machines
