How to unpack files of MGS2 Substance?
In order to make a cdbackup of my MGS2 DVD to CD's i want to strip the game some by removing 32 bit textures, sounds or movies. How can you figure out what program they used to pack the archives? The installation places a pac directory on harddisk with many .pac files in it. I want to know what's in it! Dragonunpacker 5 couldn't do the job, although it says to have support for .pac archives. And how to edit the .DAT files? Also, to save some space to backup this game would be to strip and split the vrmissions and all other extras like snaketales from the game so finally the would be 2 or 3 GIGs left of the almost 8 GB that installed to HDisk. DE data left can packed be stored onto 3 cd's then. Better then the 5 or 6 cd options that are going around now. Besides it would be a fun job to compress this game since its so big actually. Anyone got a suggestion to this Thread???

Everything you need to know is in this thread. And no, only dedicated crackers like those of the 'rip' groups know how to rip out data like that, so follow the instructions in the thread and you will be able to backup the whole game to cd.

I know, I've seen the posts before about backing up the game.
But I don't just want to make a backup copy. Iwant to expirimentate some with the game, edit, modify, (str)rip it; get into it. Of many other games there are lot tools around that can open, add and edit graphics of the game. Like GTA and Diablo for instance. So why not of the best game series of the century? Okay, it's rather new this PC port but is then someone aware of some tools for Metal Gear Solid first PC port of microsoft? Some tips to strip the MGS2 game for the rippers around: -Remove the 32 bit highres textures -Remove all 44.1 khz sounds -Remove some long not so important movies and replace them with a dia presentation of a few captures of the movie, along with text under it what's was said inthe movie. -Remove all the extras like vrmissions and snake tales -Rip the voice acting of the codex to a seperate add-on greets Ewoud ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Fission Mailed"
