Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) So I just downloaded a template that I wanted to edit, and that same pop up came up. The file was originaly a .rar file, but I changed it to a png and it still doesn't work :/. I just realized that im 13 years late on this forum...

toe_head2001 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 @Toasted_0range, please don't reply to those very old forum topics. I've split your post into a new topic. 18 minutes ago, Toasted_0range said: The file was originaly a .rar file, but I changed it to a png A RAR is an archive format similar to the ZIP format. So, you can't just change an archive (.rar) into an image (.png). Is there an image file contain within the RAR archive?

Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 I think so. I'm trying to make a minecraft texture pack, and the pack is in a .ZIP format, which is normal. This is a screenshot of the template im trying to download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 You think so? Well, open up the archive, and find out for sure. Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 I don't really know how to open the archive. When I open the file with MS paint or Paint.net neither work, and I don't have the option to open it without a program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 The microsoft page didn't really work, but do you think that WinRAR would work to extract the image from the .rar file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Yes, WinRAR will work. I would be a lot easier to help you, if you got your story straight. First you said it was a .rar file, and then you said it was a .zip file. Now it's a .rar file again.

Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 Sorry if I was confusing, the template I downloaded is a .rar file, but the entire texture pack is a .zip file (there isn't a problem with the texture pack, just the file). I'll try WinRAR to extract it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted_0range Posted August 14, 2020 Author Share Posted August 14, 2020 I extracted the images from the .rar folder, and I am now able to open them with Paint.net. Thank you for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
