PK4Scape (1.0) - Readme  
Readme File:
************************************************
PK4Scape
Version: 1.0 (Final Version)
October 18, 2004.
************************************************

Note: This is the final release, there will be no future development, as most people use compression software or the built-in zip capabilities of Windows, there is no point to continue making this utility.

PK4Scape is tool designed to be used with Doom3 Data Files(.PK4), it allows to open, modify, create and apply compression to all (.PK4) files.

This tool is designed mainly for modders/mappers that need a tool for handling (.PK4) files, PK4Scape is very easy to use, fast, stable and provides with a complete tool to edit/create (.PK4) files.

Main Features:

* Multiple Document Interface.
* Stability and low system resources use.
* Explorer-like UI.
* Compression Options.
* Drag & Drop.
* Import/Export files and directories.

Note: PakScape originally is tool for Quake’s Engine games made by Peter Engström in 1999, this tool is being made for Doom3 by Nivelxe under the name of PK4Scape.

Version Explanation:

Version: 1.0 (Final Version)
New central registry folder.
Fixed a bug in compression engine.
Memory Optimizations.
Processor Optimizations.
Fixed a bug in Windows 2000.
Improved speed in compression.

BETA 1B:
Executable optimizations.
Fixed the stupid bug in save dialog, now it shows Doom 3 Data, just like it was mean to.
A lot of small glitches fixed.
Improved stability.
Faster compression engine.

BETA 1A:
Added an installer, which also adds the option to make it your default .PK4 file viewer.
Fixed more problems with big files.
Fixed some memory issues with big files.

BETA 1:
Added PK4 Support.
Fixed some issues with big (over 300Mb) PK4 Files.
Fixed two bugs related with file formats.

Install Instructions:

Run Setup.exe and follow on screen instructions, on the choose setup type, select if you want that (.PK4) file format is associated with PK4Scape or not.

Technical Information:

Maximum files in a PK4 file: 65535 files.
Maximum path in a PK4 file: 65535 bytes.

Tips and Tricks:

If you don't have a lot of free memory save the archive directly after
you've added a few files.

If you don't have a fast processor use normal compression when saving PK4 archives, maximum compression is a lot slower and normally doesn't compress a whole lot more than normal compression, also it may decrease performance in game.

Bugs/Limitations:

* When moving objects (files and directories) all of the original
objects will be deleted unless you cancel the operation in a
'Confirm Replace' dialog. Answering 'No' will only result in that
the destination file is not overwritten- the file to be moved will
still be deleted!
* File type descriptions may be wrong for non-registered types unless
you have used the file open/save dialog. I have no idea why.
* If you decide to view a document (i.e. either double-click the document
or choose 'Open' from the context menu) that is registered to open with
PK4Scape the temporary file created will not be deleted when PK4Scape closes.
