[PC] bin-gzip extractor / creator
luksy:
NERV Agent apparently had issues with another bin-gzip tool, so I made a new one.
Usage is pretty straightforward: give the tool one argument and it will unpack the named file, give it more than one argument and it will create a new archive with the first argument, and add the remaining arguments as archive members.
The filename extensions must be kept as-is as they contain the id used in the archive headers.

Lazy Bastard:
Awesome; I've grabbed a copy for posterity. Mind if I add it to the Downloads page of GameHacking.org ?
luksy:
Sure, no worries.
Lazy Bastard:
Done; thanks.
NERV Agent:
I realize its been like a whole year since the last post, but I noticed something with this program.
It works fine with the US version of "WINDOW.BIN". When the files are extracted, the following files are generated:
WINDOW.BIN-0.0
WINDOW.BIN-1.0
WINDOW.BIN-2.1
I wanted to see if I can edit the Japanese version. The Japanese version of "WINDOW.BIN" is 40,898 bytes. I used this version of bin-gzip to extract the files from this archive, and it generated this:
WINDOW.BIN-0.0
WINDOW.BIN-1.0
WINDOW.BIN-2.0
WINDOW.BIN-3.1
I made absolutely no edits to these files, and used bin-gzip to create another "WINDOW.BIN" using the untouched files above. The new "WINDOW.BIN" is 40,878 bytes, smaller than the original.
I have yet to see if this new smaller "WINDOW.BIN" still works, although I doubt it will.
UPDATE: I used CDmage to import this smaller "WINDOW.BIN" with unmodified files back into the game. CDmage padded out the extra space with 0s and...
...it still works. Weird....
