Right, there are 33 characters.

Hmm I have no idea. Maybe Rheini or some "veteran" user could help you.

I know nothing about compressing/programming etc., but did you try all 9 compression levels with zlibc?

Can game has some modification protection or something?

Hi guys,
Did you notice, that rebuilded .bin file (nonmodified .txt) is bigger than original .bin?
Ex. AllTextEng.bin = 107 517B, new-AllTextEng.bin = 108 249B

Yep Evin, you are right. Data are the same, just headers are different.

And what? You can't edit them directly. I have converted *.res to *.dds and now can see font characters, but can't convert it back to .res format. Maybe that's the reason why Czech translators made translation without diacritics

res2dds converter, but it can't convert textures back to .res

No upk file in the game!!! Only xxx and this bin :) So I looked at game's files and that .xxx files are renamed .upk which contains sounds, maps, strings and so on. That's what you are looking for. And in this thread http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=4536&start=0&st=0&sk=...
