How can i make /data.zip from original game files? What software is needed for this? Could you give me this zip file or explain how to do it?

Tried to use original game files from http://nyerguds.arsaneus-design.com/cnc95upd/cc95p106/ and convert using XCC Utilities and Imagemagick

But the result did not work, please help me with it, I ask.

I actually made some custom scripts to process extracted files from XCC into an archive, however I can't seem to find it on my computer, and I didn't commit it to this repository :( I will try to see if I can't find this, but I sadly don't have time to do this today.

However, I'm fairly sure that you can make your own archive by doing the following:

Hi, thanks!

The archive is almost ready, judging by the console logs, the following resources are needed that failed to converting using XCC Mixer:

cclocal.mix/8point.fnt cclocal.mix/6point.fnt cclocal.mix/vcr.fnt

to

CCLOCAL.MIX/8point.png CCLOCAL.MIX/6point.png CCLOCAL.MIX/vcr.png

XCC Mixer does not support to do it. How can i do it?

Forgive my insolence, but maybe you sent to somebody this archive by email or by messenger, you can be easily viewed it in history.

Thanks for your support!

Now that you bring this up, I don't actually remember how I extracted the fonts. Might have been a different tool. Sadly I have yet to find the scripts that I used for this.

This issue is actually the first request I've gotten for this (excluding someone that mailed me here the other day... maybe that was you ?!). And I haven't looked into this in a really long time -- and in this time I've swapped computers and apparently forgot to backup some stuff.

I will have a look through my archives though. I've just been a bit too busy this weekend to do that... I'll get back to you on this.
