*Diablo Archive Viewer version 1.40, created by Lucifer*
**New in 1.40**
Recently I added 2 text files that were requested to be added
to this zip file. They are not mine. Never-the-less they have
important information on what's what in the Mpq file. Thank
them if you can.
This will work with **any** version of Diablo out there,
*but* you have to put this in it's own directory. I have
mine in C:\diablo\viewer, but it doesn't matter.
This is the final version to be released to the public.
There may be some hybrid's floating around, but they are
actually worse than what you have right here. So don't bother.
haha! I lets you view the saved games, but not SAVE them.
The reason I did this was because Enigma's backup was
supposed to be just that. A backup. And he turned it into
something Blizzard hated (and personally, I dont want
Blizzard mad at me for this).and btw, It is STILL encrypted
after you extract it.
I have incorperated scripting for the file viewing.
Take a look at the program and the sample scripts to
see how to use them.
In the previous version of this viewer, there was a bug
that didn't allow you to View any file over 10Mb. This
has been fixed.I also fixed the bug of it running in the
background even after you closed it.
**Things to Know**
If you haven't noticed I'm trying to make this program
do all the hard work for you. Now I'd like all of your
cooperation when I say: If you find another file I
missed, or have figured out what 'this' does and 'that'
does in a file, Great! Send it to me and I'll use it
next time.
I have incorporated plugins like enigma did, and they are
be used like enigma's AND a new thing.
Put a .dll in the current dir called
???.dll (eg. wav.dll cel.dll)
and a subfunction called
int Run(char* name, char* data, int size)
btw, for all those wanting to know something intersting...
The Saved game files are only 1288 in size.
The Saved game data (hero) is STILL encrypted.
The Archive is NOT compressed, just encrypted.
**Info**
My name is Lucifer to all that email me. I couldn't have done
as near as much work without sorti. He is the one that gave
me the other 1000 files I didn't know of, and the help I have
gotten so far...
And I'm only 16.
