Left4Dead *.vpk Extraction Tools, now with UI
Friday, November 14th, 2008A newer build of my VPK tool that now includes a UI. It also fixes handling of the ‘small data’ in the directory file that most *.vmt files were using instead of real files in one of the other package files. Please report any issues in comments, thanks. Edit: See this newer post for a newer build of tools.
Left4Dead *.vpk Extraction Tools Test
Thursday, November 13th, 2008Here are some test binaries for extracting data from the *.vpk packages recently seen in the Left4Dead demo. Edit: See this newer post for a newer build of tools.
To use:
- Extract the *.dll and *.exe files to a directory, it doesn’t matter where.
- Click + dragdrop a _dir.vpk file onto Gibbed.Valve.ExtractPackage.exe.
- Files will be extracted to the directory the file you dragged is in, or the current directory if you invoke ExtractPackage in a console window.
I will probably get around to making a tool with a UI, but for now, this works. Source will also be provided pretty soon.
If any of you encounter any bugs please leave a comment here with information. This tool was tested with the most recent version of the Left4Dead demo, and may break with the full game files once it is out.
