Ooops didn't checked that... You're right dek001, the file is not extracted...
I'm wondering what's happening with this file...

I upped my LScripts.pak (v1.0 FR) :

Hope this helps

export of Tweak.lua works
but the reimport of the extracted file don't work

I tried it, and I can extract AND import the Tweak.lua file succesfully.
I changed it first and then imported it back, and re-extracted it to confirm succesful importation. So I don't know yet why it doesn't work with you.

I posted a new version 1.2.1 that fixes the issue with the Heart.Citem file. Turns out it is actually a file that was 0 in length prior compression by the Painkiller devs, but they compressed it nevertheless, leaving a file now 8 in size. A remarkable choice of events. Anyway, the decompressor routine in Painfull simply decompresses the 8-sized compressed file back to 0. Something Painfull did not expect, naturally. Now when this happens, Painfull will simply open the said file and close it, without writing anything to it, recreating the 0-sized original.

Wow that's weird...
Thanks A LOT Mr. Mouse

Edit: : The files Loader.lua and vssver.scc don't want to extract, I've got the message "Error extracting". Is there a chance to get it working? I think this file is used to initialize the engine at startup. It seems interresting

Re-Edit : Sorry, after some indeep testing, I managed to get it! In fact these files were extracted as folder by a previous version. This confuses the new extractor

Everything seems to be working now for me! Thanks again

Excellent!

So, this might help others as well. Once you get a new version of Painfull, make sure you remove such directories that might get in the way of Painfull normal function. Just as a tip. I know it should not make a difference, but the previous version was not 100% and I hope Painfull becomes more and more 100% as new version arise!

Yes, it is just an empty file. I don't know why it does not create this empty file, at my work it also doesn't, but at home it worked. Hmmmmmmmmmm.

WOOW you're amazing man! I really appreciate your job but I still have the error mentionned above

My pak file is still on my account et lycos if you want

Post by **Mr.Mouse** » Fri May 21, 2004 6:17 pm

Yeah, but you said you got the error in a maps.pak file, right? That one is not at the lycos address is it? Or do you have an error in that LScripts.pak as well?
