MPQ-archieve docs?

12-23-2006, 02:52 PM	#1
Themerion	Are there any kind of documentation on mpq-archieves and warcraft file-types? I mean, of course some of you know stuff about them; otherwise things like widgetsizer and Vex-optimizer wouldn't exist. Are there any documentation though, or do you just read other peoples' source codes (which of course are written in a variety of obscure languages :)?

SFilip	AFAIK both Widgetizer and Optimizer use SFMpq library which is probably the best and easiest way to access a MPQ. You can get it here.

But that library only work with C++ and VisualBasic, aight?

I don't know any reasonable programming language that can't use dlls.
