The files in this repository are the EXEs as windows binaries. zlib.dll as the zlib DLL required for using the binaries. The C files are the source code to the programs and require zlib linked to use. Clicking on both programs without parameters explains the usage. Both programs should be launched from the command line.
bindump is used as bindump in.bin with in.bin being the input Mario Party BIN file. The text file output will be the same name as the BIN file, but the file extension is changed to txt. The files are also extracted onto the disk with the same name as the bin but with _file%d.%s being added after the extension is trimmed with %d being the file index and %s being the file extension. Possible values for the file extension are atb for 2D images, hsf for 3D models, and dat for unknown formats. The format of each line of the text file is compression_type=%d: %s with %d being the compression type and %s being the filename relative to the directory of the dumped text file. Possible values for the compression type are 0 for no compression, 1 for a LZSS compression, 2, 3, or 4 for a sliding window compression similar to YAZ0, 5 for a RLE compression, or 7 for an inflate compression. All other values for compression type are invalid. The program will complain with an error if it cannot open or write a file.
binpack is used as binpack list.txt out.bin c_header.h with list.txt being a text file output by bindump, out.bin being the output bin path, and c_header.h being an optional parameter to dump the file names into a C header for defines. If out.bin isn't provided, the output bin file will be the same name as the input text file but with the extension changed to bin. The format of each line of the text file is compression_type=%d: %s with %d being the compression type and %s being the filename relative to the directory of the text file. Possible values for the compression type are 0 for no compression, 1 for a LZSS compression, 2, 3, or 4 for a sliding window compression similar to YAZ0, 5 for a RLE compression, or 7 for an inflate compression. All other values for compression type are invalid. The program will complain with an error if it cannot open or write a file. The C header starts with an include guard defining an uppercased version of the filename with periods replaced with underscores using a #ifndef and #define sequence on different lines. The C header then follows with a blank line. The header then lists defines for each of the files making up the BIN file to translate file names to their respective indices. The file then is followed with another blank line and then with #endif to end the include guard.
