Re: Replace video - old bink (BIK) files

Thank you Edison007 and peter2005 for your replies, but unfortunately none of these methods works. Game still crashes or skips BIK when I try to load old BIK or BIK with 104 sound. I discoverd that game uses version 0.8 or 0.9 of binkw32.dll and RAD Tools newer than 1.0 didn't work in that case. To ...

Replacing voice in PSX Audio/2352 Audio tracks (.bin)

I was able to replace audio tracks in PSX game using CDMage, ffmpeg, IsoBuster, MF Audio, XtrActor .NET, besweet and Hex Workshop but my method has its limitations and I thought that maybe there is a better and simpler way to do that? Some tool maybe?

Re: [REQ][PC] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 - FNT font files

I have updated file format again.
I think that these bitmaps are in 4 bytes per pixel format and palette is in 2 bytes per colour format (big endian) and with BGR colour order.

I have also checked for text to translate and unfortunatelly everything is in main exe file. ;/ Too bad.

Re: Metal Gear Solid (series) - Tools

where can I find these files and how can I do this?
I don't have this game installed right now, but I remember a little how to edit this image.
It is some TGA image that is in game folder. It isn't even packed as I remember.
So try to search for file titlescreen.tga or something similar to this. :)

Re: [REQ][PC] Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 - FNT font files

Hey. I have updated file format in the first post. Now I know more about these fonts. First I thought that every FNT file has only one bitmap, but I was wrong. There is separate bitmap for each symbol. And successfully I have found palette data, but I don't know what palette type is it. So I'm close...
