Half Life: Dreamcast WAD & PAK Files

Hi there

Recently came across this game. GCFScape and Wally seem to open these files okay, but Xentax has a bit of trouble with them.

I will attach a WAD file for the minute, the PAK files will need splitting.

Could you possibly have a look and see what the problem is?

Cheers for now

You can using WALLY for edit textures...

Well, the WADs will open in Wally, but the textures are in a format that Wally cannot display (PVR I think).

All I was asking for was that MultiEx might be made to open these types properly...

Ok, thanks for the bugreport! I will have a look and try to fix it!

Cool. I will try to post the pak files tomorrow from the DC version.

I also have the PS2 version of the game. Some of the PAK files on there are standard Valve ones, but others don't want to open in Xentex or Pakscape.. should I post samples of those too?

Cheers for now

PS - In fact... here they are... the two RAR files are from Dreamcast PAK files and the "decay.pak" is from the PS2 version...

Thanks. I've fixed the WAD problem. They were actually yet another WAD format (WAD3+ or something, not standard WAD3 or IWAD).

Here's the MultiEx Commander script

Code: Select all

ImpType Standard ;
IDString 0 WAD3 ;
Get FC Long 0 ;
SavePos TailOffOff 0 ;
Get TO Long 0 ;
GoTo TO 0 ;
For TE = 1 To FC ;
SavePos FOO 0 ;
Get FO Long 0 ;
SavePos FSO 0 ;
Get FS Long 0 ;
Get D Long 0 ;
Get D Long 0 ;
GetDString FN 16 0 ;
Log FN FO FS FOO FSO ;
Next TE ;

Will make it available from webupdate tomorrow if time permits.

If I add the above as a BMS script, will it mess up if it then comes in an automatic update?

Any luck with the new PAK files too?

Cheers for now

Dreamcast version????

But it was cancelled! Wow, how did you get the DC version to explore?

No, not if you use it in Run Custom Script.

Hmm.. looks like I'm doing something wrong again..

How do I get this to load as a custom script? Yes, I've read the sticky.. but can't get it to work

Hey there Mr Mouse!

I notice this didn't get included in latest update? Any chance in the next one?

Did you have any luck with the PAK files?

Cheers for now
