[War1gus] Hallfiry's MacWar1 data converters -- possibly useful? #344

Closed SenhorFlibble closed 3 years ago

SenhorFlibble commented 3 years ago

The War1gus page mentions that extraction and use of MacOS resources is not fully supported yet. Since the recent GOG release of Warcraft 1 provides the hybrid CD ISO with both DOS and Mac data, the latter is now available to non-Mac users so it'd be pretty nice to have full support of Mac resources.

A while ago Hallfiry made a set of converter tools for both DOS and Mac data files, perhaps these could be of use to you?

I've seen those. Unfortunately, there's no source code for the tools themselves, they only work on windows, and the documentation is a little too incomplete to build the extraction from scratch for me :(

I actually started working on the Macintosh version extraction a few years ago: https://github.com/Wargus/war1gus/issues/78
