Re: maximum package size?

you could always do it manually.
use a pkgbuild top create an empty pkg, (a pkg with nothing i it) using the correct details etc.
so u can be sure everythign will work, then extract .PK* files from it, place the game in a dir say pkgame then put the .PK* files in root of that directory.
then compress it. u should then have a valid pkg.
