How is this one different for the one TK posted there several weeks ago ???

 

The last one he posted did not allow you to open the lod's cat file.

TK put up a twit (tweet?) about fixes. Minor update.

[+Stary 2,427]

it by default reads .DLC files -which in fact are CAT files with renamed extension only; older extractor opens them too if you select all files type from menu

however ObjectCat2 and lods will remain unreadable. thats a preventing sticky fingers issue, not an extractor issue.

I bet a day w/ a hex editor and Visual Basic and I can get around the locked CATs :-) But I choose not to.

 

not to mention if i needed any LODs from the cats, I still have all the pre-June cats Extracted to a Random Folder on my Desktop.

all we could possibly need would be .OUT files TK never ever included in any version/title IIRC

Really ? I'd like to see that . Cause actually it's not "locked" but "encrypted" so good luck

locked/encrypted to a normal person mean the same thing, to a dr.pepper technology junkie like me it means "i challenge you"......
