Title: [FF7] LGP Loader (2011-08-19)
Post by: Gromtar on 2011-08-19 16:31:14
Hiho,

Sorry my English is not so good but i try my best an hope you guys understand me ^^

Yesterday i had an idea for a tool and for this idea i have to load the ff7 lgp files in to the memory.
So i wrote a little dll to do the job.

It has just a few functions to load the lgp in to the memory but if some one want to test it i Uploaded it here gromtars_lgp_loader (http://www.communityworld.de/gromtars_lgp_loader.zip)
I wrote it in PB (PureBasic) so the test source file is in pb but it should work in each language that can load dll's

Just out of curiosity from a noob, what would this do?

You can open the lgp archive and load the files in the archiv direct in to the memory to work with them.

I need this for a little tool, and with a dll it is just faster to implement if i need it again.

You know that there is already Aali's LGP tools that anyone should use, right?

Hm as far as i know does Alis LGP tool extract the files, or recreate a archiv.

But if i just want to read data from the archiv i dont need to extract all the file just holding the needed files in the memory is enougth.
Therefor i wrote this little dll to get access to all the files in the lgp without extracting them on hd.
