Hi guys

before I get the next trouble with my exams, I've finished the basic version of our pak reader.



Functions:
- open multiple TS PAK files (open dialogue or via drag&drop)
- view animations and background images and export them as *.png
- extract the contained files of the PAK

Bugfixes:
- StartIndex Error

Known Bugs:
- wrong width of some *.caf files (Cyrus Paks)

Would be very nice if somebody would check PAKs in another language than german

Have fun and greeeedings!

edit: what happened to our Bric-a-Brac Studio Logo? I wanted to build it in the program, bit I can't find the new version..

Nice Software !
Edit: ZOMFG INCREDIBLE WORK, MAN

About the logo... well... my Hoster killed my Account, I need to gather all the data again from a bunch of old HDDs *cries and jumps off a bridge*

Thats just F**ing amazing ^^. And Neomix, sorry for your loss. I really know how that feels

Just a small correction i think:
- You should change the Open Pak Dialog to a Multiple Selection one. I didnt see the Source code yet, but i dont think that it would be hard to implement. Just change the open file part to a loop which runs through the Selections Array.

-> Due to the fact that we have the Animation now, perhaps we can use Flux animations for our game. that would be cool ^^.

-> The Toonstruck Font that you used on the Pictures (and the Icons for the Menu) where did you get them?.
did you just copy / paste the characters or do you have a font-file. if you dont have a font file, i could make one out of the files (perhaps ^^).

first of all, thx a lot for the good feedback

@neomix21
The missing logo is a terrible message, i feel with you, too. Maybe google cache know it yet
edit: no

@buchse
I kicked the multiple selection out. Normaly you have one pak file in one folder on the cd, so you can't select multiple files in one time. The open button is more meant for the "hobby clicker"
Go in your Toonstruck cd dir and search for all *.pak files and drag them all into the list in the Reader, its faster then collecting all pak files in a folder just to multiple select it.

The fonts are copied out of this:


This pic and the basis for the icons can you find in ONETIME.PAK and the fonts of toonstruck are in LOCAL.PAK.


Happy unpacking

seems like i will create a font out of it

Thats some really nice progress going on here.

ATM I am copying all the old Drives to my NAS to make a BIG Search for the Logo Files

They will be online soon!

I think I can report the first bug: when I try to add some of the PAK's (like "LOCAL.PAK"), I get an error message:
"Unhandled exception has occured in your application... Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: startIndex".

oke, could you send me your local.pac for bug fixing?

I've tested it with my german.pak files. i have the english ones too but havent tested it yet, because the files are on another pc.

Two files with the said bug: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=K3JDAWED
