Help with .wad extracting and repacking

Post by gaolon »

I wanna translate a game named "Magic The Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers".And I find the game diectory includes some .wad files,such as Data_Core.wad ,Data_DLC_0001.wad...I THINK these files contain the texts need to be translated.Then how to extract and repack them.
Can anyone help me?Many thanks.

I provide these without any support for now, still very preliminary and early tools.

Don't ask me about localization tools; if you don't have the resources to develop them yourself you don't need them.

The tool you support works nice.but some problem with repacking.
I use it extracting a .wad file, 180M.
then i get a folder ,500M.
after editing some files ,i repacking the folder ,getting a .wad file ,500M.
it did not compress files.

That post, and the rest of the discussion in the thread should give you an idea of why.
