Converting bin to cpp

Recommended Posts

I remember seeing somewhere someone talking about a progam that converts BIN to CPP "partly"

Does anyone know what the program is and where it can be found?

CoC seem to be working on a tool that seems to have the capability. It's a .bin viewer with a non-functional option to convert to cpp. Although something like this might be a little dangerous in the wrong hands. I really wish something like that would be released. I understand the probability of some loser trying to make a cheat by decompiling a binary mod that edits the existing weapons. Aside from that I don't see any moral reason why cpp files shouldn't be allowed to be modified. I'd think people stealing artwork would be more looked down on, and more sought to be protected. Not just a config file.

I'd like a bin to cpp tool just so I could look at all the

official ofp addon's configs

Being able to look at the cpp's would have been great a bit ago. Still would be nice...maybe the option to view and not extract would be ok

Pbo Decryptor 1.3: http://west.flashpoint.ru/index.php?blogid=1&archive=2002-06

There's a link to it on that page somewhere closer to the bottom I think. However, if you just want something to look at bin files with. Then I suggest holding out until www.thechainofcommand.com gets their message board back up so you can download their bin viewer. I heard someone say 1.3 has difficulty converting negative values, or something like that. I'm definitely no expert on the subject. I can't recall where to get ofp manager, that works ok as well, only it fails to line up classes in some instances, or so I hear.

Feh. I wish cheaters didn't take advantage of this client side editing or that it never existed. Making my own guns that work well is turning into a real chore.

-Edit-

Hold up... I just found out about Binedit from OFP internals. It seems like their site is gone now. The binedit tool sounds like all anyone would need for making their mods. I must find this tool. Gauranteed there are some elitist swine lurking around who'd stop an average joe like me from getting my hands on it to make my own mods under the pretense of culling the proliferation of cheating. Just you wait... *determined scowl*
