- Ripper4 - The One And Only Ultimative Sound- & GFX-Rippersystem
- =================================================================
-
- A Ripper is a program that let you extract different files out of
- Demos, Games or others so you can get all the CMF-midi files from
- Doom or all the MOD-files from the demo "Second Reality".
-
- Ripper4 can find/extract following :
-
- GIF,JPG,PCX,BMP,TGA,FLI,FLC : graphic files (in diff. versions)
- MID,CMF,MUS,HMI,HMP,XMI : midi files
- VOC,WAV,SND,U8 : sample files
- AMF,S3M,STM,MOD,NST,DMF,XM,OKT,PSM,
- MTM,PTM,ULT,FAR : MOD files (in diff. versions)
- LBM,IFF : graphic/sample/midi-files
- DIET,PKLITE,LZEXE : signs from EXE packers,
- DLZ : a file packed with DIET,
- found in some demos
- ....
-
- summary there can be found 45 filetypes !
- =================================================================
-
- Use :
- Ripper4 [LW:\Path\Infile.Ext] [LW:\Path\Outname] [/A] [/T] [/C] [/H]
- - Infile.Ext : file to search through,
- - Outname : name for found files,
- if not given, then "Rip4_" is default name
- - /A switches automaticmode (no querries) on
- - /T switches writing of listfile (Ripper4.lst) and
- info-file (Ripper4.doc) off.
- - without /A there is a setup for files to search for!
- - /C let you configure the Ripper4
- - /H shows help
- if nothing is given a fileselector starts,
-
- example : "ripper4 doom.wad c:\temp\doom_ /a"
- extracts all the files found in doom.wad and writes them directly to
- the directory c:\temp\doom_ (if directory exists).
-
-
- for the configuration you can use /C or edit the cfg-file :
- file must be named Ripper4.cfg and it must be in the same directory.
- 1st line : outpath and name, example "c:\temp\rip_"
- 2nd line : "auto=on" or "auto=off" switches auto-mode
- 3rd line : "test=on" or "test=off" switches test-mode
- - if the cfg-file is present the commandline-parameters will be ignored !
- - in the cfg-file you also can enable/disable the filetypes to be searched
- they are splitted in 5 parts(modules/midis/samples/gfx/exe)
- - also you can specify an user string to search for, see example
- This i a normal config-file :
- ; Outpath [and/or Outname] :
- c:\temp\_rip_
-
- ; Automode [on/off]
- auto=on
-
- ; Testmode [on/off]
- test=off
-
- ; files to be ripped [sorted in 5 groups]
- modules=on
- midis=on
- samples=on
- gfx=on
- exe=off
-
- ; user search-string [ {10} means ASCII sign numer 10 ]
- user1=AMF{10}
- =================================================================
-
- Ripper4 was tested on several Games :
- - Doom, Doom2, Heretic : MUS-Files
- - Terminal Velocity : MOD-Files
- - Dark Forces : MIDI-Files
- - Hocus Pocus : PCX/MOD/MIDI/VOC-Files
- - Descent : PCX/HMI-Files
- - Rise Of The Triad : MID/VOC-Files
- and many more
- Demos :
- - Second Reality / Uneatable / Hexapeal / Unreal
- - Holistic / Visions / Warp : diff. MOD-Files
- and all the others I have
-
- Ripper4 cannot found something if the file is crypted like
- the Demo "Crystal Dreams II" by Triton !
- And there are some filetypes found many often but often they are
- not really this filetypes. For example the TIF pic-file.
- The search sign is often be found in normal data-files and so there
- are ripped tif files which cannot be used, sorry !
