Tool to Edit the Texts from Hawx.

Postby caws » Mon Jun 28, 2010 1:47 pm

What's up folks? I'm a coder from Brazil, a friend of mine asked e to create a tool that could dump the texts from the cpak\mpak files to a txt file so he would be able to translate the game.

Ive created it, and i'm here to release the very first version of the tool.

How to use it:

This is what you are going to need:
Your file .cpack\.mpack.
Hex editor

Step 1: Dumping
To dump the texts you will need a little bit of he experience.

First open the .mpak (i'm using the gamemenu.mpack as a example).

The beggining of the file is just crap. What really interest us are the texts right?

Look for the texts in unicode, in the gamemnu.mpack it starts in the offset 15d6.

Roll back 9 bytes and the position is 15cd, put this in then block start box in the program.

Now click on dump.

It will dump the texts to a txt file.

Step 2: Inserting
To insert, select the head-xxx file. it will reinsert everything and you should be good to try the file in the game.

PS:Sorry for my english..

Wow! I would love to get my hands on that Tool. :o

I imagine I polish what I started on HAWX with it in a future update of the Mod.

Great Job! 8-)
