I'll pass this on to Captain.

Nope, they are not. The files are indeed Zlib compressed and you can decompress them. Use this MexScript : # Astonia *.PAK file MexScript # By Mr.Mouse # Files are ZLib compressed # But no UCSize is saved in here! # So, I set the max UCSize to 100000 ComType ZLib1 ; Get Date Long 0 ; Get FileNum Lon...

You would not believe me:
I had to install Mycrosoft Offyce 2000 to fix it.... (some error occured and then Mex asked me to install it...)

What a crazy day......

Btw: Mr.Mouse: you are great... thx

Thanks. Glad it works now.

Hmmm @Mr.Mouse: It looks like your plugin is working, but when I try to open the .arc archive I only get error: "PNG Archive not valid Path_to_my_directory_with Just_cause.dll" I am using unregistered version Are you sure the .tab and .txt files are in the folder with the .arc file? Also,...

Working Plugin for Just Cause (PC) .ARC files and SARC files. Download the attached zip file and extract the dll. Create a ARC folder in the plugin directory of MultiEx Commander and then copy the dll there. Done. This MexCom plugin will open and extract from .ARC files and SARC files. ARC files: T...

See attached image. The plugin now detects all files in the ARC and links it with the correct filename. Need to build in actual extraction. More to follow.

Sorry, must have been blind, or drunk , or both ! Fixed !

What I expected is indeed the case. I am still puzzled why the pclist.txt refers to more files then there are in the PC0.ARC file (based on findings in the pc.tab file). I am currently writing a plugin for MexCom to support extraction.

It seems to me the txt file in the same dir as PC0 is the list of files in the PC0.ARC, and the .tab file gives information on where to find these files in the arc.

a question, what's xor? kinda curious to know. eXclusive OR. Binary operation. Like AND, OR, NOT. Each bit in a target byte is compared with the bits in a byte to XOR the target byte with. The operation sets the resulting bit to 1 only if one of both operators is true. 0 XOR 0 = 0 1 XOR 0 = 1 0 XOR...

Please provide us with examples of those pak archives or a direct link to a demo.

Also, ich probier einmal auf Deutsch zu reden. Ich hoffe das klapt. Du sollst ein neue page machen, and da das template einfuhren: {{GRAFTemplate1| file_extension=FILE EXTENSION| format_type=Archive| endian_order=Little Endian| date_posted=~~~~~| format_specifications=None written yet.| notes=None| ...

Additionally, the monospaced font used in some smaller labels doesn't seem to use the standard ANSI charset, which causes incorrect display of "special" characters. But that's just a minor thing ... Could you point out a few? So I can see if that can be fixed in-code for a future release.
