No, converting PAK to NRG does not cause additional quality loss — NRG uses lossless compression. However, any artifacts already present in the original PAK file will persist in the NRG output.
NRG files are typically 2-5x larger than equivalent PAK files because NRG preserves all pixel data. This is expected and necessary for lossless quality.
