Cities XL Data file Extractor and Packager

[jeremy12 0]

 With the Great Code base from bacter over at xentax.com i have created a Application with a nice UI that even uses language configuration files so it can be localized. I am looking for someone to create any translations if i cant find any one soon i will make start them with Google Translate. 

You can find and download the application (and source) Over on Google Projects at http://code.google.com/p/citiesxlextractor/

There is also a Issue Tracker so if you have any issues please post it there or in this thread.

I started this application as a extractor and with the recent repackager code surfacing i have included it

• Download at http://code.google.com/p/citiesxlextractor/
• To Request Features, Submit Bugs, Or Request any change to the application Submit them at http://code.google.com/p/citiesxlextractor/issues/entry 
• To Offer Help with the program Just send me a message

New In Version 2.1 (Released 6/7/2010) Download Here

• Minor improvement to the backend extractor as it sometimes froze on big files at the end (but it extracts fully...) might need bit more of a change here in next version as its a reduced issue not a fixed one
• Added a option in the right click menu for easy patch file creation

New Right Click Menu:

I did not update the source download for 2.1 if you want/need it pull it from the source area of the site via SVN i will only update the source download for major changes

Coming Soon:

• App Options Panel
• Right Click menu options for extracting
• Ability to turn off right click menus in options panel (or chose specific ones)

A wonderful too jeremy, thanks much!, now, is there a way to say? extract a map that was only available in PO, and use it in the game, because I've extracted rio de janero but I have no idea where to put it if it will even work. thanks!

i remember at one point seeing someone that saved all the maps in a easy to get in single player format although i cannot find it now, nor can i remember what site it was on

great job jeremy12!! is there a way to include .sgbin files?

i think arcadoli over at the french forum generation-city is making a pak/re-pak program as well.

i'm pretty excited about all the new developments taking place.

I know the people over at citiesxs will complain, but someone had to release one of these eventually. CitiesXL already has a tiny, barely alive modding community, and their tightfistedness with the mod tools isn't doing anything but locking out potential modders.

Just need to figure out how to make some mods myself.

Feel free to post this applicaiton over there as well i do not know the french site or i would, like i said i made this application to use language config files so it can be re wrote to display any language! if any one there (or here) wants to help with the program just send me a message and i will add you to the Google Projects site and can teach you how to use subversion

If any one has Feature Requests, Bugs or Modification Requests ask here or create a issue item on the programs site, this will be a supported program!

Finally, I hope CitiesXL will slowly grow from now on. This is the beginning of something good guys.
