No. Need modified EXE-file for it
Not sure why that would be the case, the archive format supports uncompressed data just fine.
Nice, would be cool to see a plain decompressor without any file extraction then. Looks like cra0's tool is essentially doing that in a way?

output file size computation is wrong. all are 0x8000 while this is the window size for decompressor. some files are interrupt, some are appended with zeroes. I suppose each unpacked file might be made out of several compressed blocks, please refine the tool respective.

Don't ask me about localization tools; if you don't have the resources to develop them yourself you don't need them.

rick delivers with the quickness.
i don't have the game yet, so to those with the game, to what extent can we expect to modify the game?
i assume uplay will have to be hacked off( i can live with that)
:)
