Making PK3 Files....
 

Ok, I must be seriously retarded because everytime I create a mod and convert it to .pk3 format, it doesn't work properly, and only some of it works!!! I've used Pakscape, WinZip, and WinRaR... but still no luck. However, when I don't convert my mod to .pk3, and install the actual directory containing my mod into the Mohaa/main directory it works fine! What's up with that? I'll feel pretty lame if I'm the only one having the problem...but ah well. Any input from people who have had this problem and know how to fix it, please let me know.

what you need to do probably is open pkskape and drag the dir with your mod into it then delete every thing in the dir that does not belong in your mod from pkskape then SAVE ASX_whatever.pk3 then move your origanal files out of the dir and and try it.. do not be afraid of deleting file from something in PkScape but do be cautious of saving it if you do the best method is to do a SAVE AS to be sure not to mess with any thing you dont want deleted..

1. Get a similar mod from the download section so you can make sure youre using the correct directory/file structure

2. On the PK3 you jsut downloaded right-click and change the file association to winzip.

3. Double click the file to open in winzip and view the directory structure.

4. Goto your mod and select these same directories and everything else under them.

5. Right-click > choose add to directoryname.zip

6. Rename directoryname.zip to directoryname.pk3

This assumes you have winzip installed, have the "shell extensions" in the right-click menu and have "hide known file extensions" turned off in Windows Explorer (menu > tools > folder options > view )

This will work the same for any of these programs like Winace and Winrar, however you will have to use the "add to..." option for these so that you can change the default format from .RAR or .ACE to .ZIP.
