[Release] WinPCK for PWI Series Games

[beyastard]

WinPCK handles and auto-detects PCK files for the following games:

• Perfect World
• Jade Dynasty
• Forsaken World
• Ether Saga
• Saint Seiya
• Hot Dance Party
• Legend of Martial Arts

Features include:

• Adding files
• Deleting files
• Extracting files
• Creating PCKs
• Viewing files within PCK
  
  • Attempt at auto-detect txt files (ANSI/UTF)
  • Misc files displayed as raw text
• View images within PCK
  
  • JPG
  • DDS
  • BMP
  • PNG
  • TGA
  • TIFF
  • GIF
• Rebuilding PCKs
• Searching within PCKs
• Handles PKX extended PCKs
• Multi-threaded
• Drag & Drop
  
  • Drag PCK onto program to open
  • Drag files/folders into program to add to PCK
  • Drag files/folders from PCK to extract into folder
• Logging of actions/errors
• Install/uninstall to registry for
  right-click opening of PCKs

You do not need .NET to run WinPCK as it is written in C, C++ and assembly.
It is fast and more functional than other PCK tools out there and handles
multiple games with one program. There is a separate version available that
handles Swordsman as the PCK version is different than those listed above.
In the future, it may be integrated in this particular version. Also, other
features may be included in the future such as viewing SKI files, playing
audio files, etc. This tool is still in development so make sure to backup
before modifying any files. Hey, it's just common sense!

Known bugs:
Does not always display Chinese text correctly.
Fix:
Using AppLocale, or better, the open-source Locale Emulator corrects this.

Updated:
WinPCK_v1112.zip
Mirror (4shared): WinPCK v1.1.1.2
Mirror (Mega): WinPCK v1.1.1.2

As it is tied into the Win32 API so tightly, such a task would be a major undertaking.

In time, it will be fixed. Currently, it is being completely redesigned to be more modular and, possibly, make a linux version.
