DIV ARENA FORUMS

Gracilis XX

Hi,

This is another game I've developed that I've recovered from an old HDD. Game is a simple space shooter game, with many weapons and final enemies.

I've managed to retrieve .PRG file and .PAK, and I'd need to extract PAK contents in order to compile it back with DIV Dx. Mike, could you please unpack its contents for me?

Thanks!

Hi josepgames,

Try to build the unpacker tool yourself for your OS, goto: src/other/pakunpak.c and compile it with GCC/Clang, then call "pakunpack path/name.pak" from shell to estract assets from all PAK that you need.

Thanks CicTec

I've managed to compile it under ubuntu and exctract source files!! I first tried under windows but it gave me a lot of dependencies errors (even though after installing and referencing zlib...), do you use windows or linux?

Thanks!!

I mainly use windows, and sometimes linux.

For windows better download MSYS2 from here: https://msys2.github.io/
- Install it.
- Open MinGW32 Shell.
- Update package digiting: pacman -Sy pacman
- Install main tools digiting: pacman -S mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-gcc mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-cmake mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-pkg-config
- Install ZLIB package digiting: pacman -S mingw32/mingw-w64-i686-zlib

Now you are ready to compile, so:
- go to drive volume where you have downloaded DIV source code, for example if is in C drive, digit: /c
- now move to src/other directory, using classic CD command.
- call GCC compiler to compile as usual.

If all pass are correct, you have now the utility to extract assets, you can use this utility with the same MinGW shell, or normal windows shell.

For OS X simply use the same method of Linux.
