velcro113 Posted June 12, 2009 Author Share Posted June 12, 2009 i tried searching for it, but it doesnt seem to be here... there are programs out there that convert it to .jpg(bin2jpg), but they always reduce the quality a lot. also i kinda need to be able to save images into .bin format. umm... if it exists, can someone give me a link, if it doesnt already exist on here, could someone either: tell me how i would go about making one make one for me? help would be appreciated. if a .bin image file is needed, i can post one here. please excuse the grammatical errors.

Sozo Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Bins aren't really images, it's a file compression used most often by Mac's, so far as I know. That being the case, I don't know how much demand/support it will get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velcro113 Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 i already knew that .bin files were similar to .iso(disk images). worms Armageddon and Super Smash Bros Brawl use .bin images, which are compressed .jpg the problem is every program i try to use to decompress it reduce the quality a lot. i am trying to make a mod for worms, as a project. and i am a big fan of the SSB series. when i try to open the .bin files in image mounting software(powerISO/magic ISO/daemon tools), it says it is not a valid image file. the only program i have found that works to decompress them is Bin2Jpg, but it lacks options, and degrades the quality by a lot. if there is a nobody else who needs the plugin, i will make it myself, so can someone tell me how i would go about this, or redirect me to a tutorial or something? im guessing i gotta learn C# in order to do it. which is fine, i'm going to be learning it soon anyways. edit: i might be an idiot, i think WinRAR might work for it. now i just have to wait until i get paid... EDIT: winrar's trial doesn't allow me to decompress it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Ryan Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Try 7-Zip, I am not sure if it allows for recompressing a .BIN file, but that would be my first bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velcro113 Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 nope, it fails to open it as well it doesnt act as an archive. it acts like a file that nothing opens. im going to do a filext.com search. EDIT: thank you guys for all your help. surprisingly i am not being trolled filext only gave dead ends, all the results didnt match the files i am working with... here is one of the files i am working with(virus scan before you do anything with it, do it out of habit) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=D1E1QE5O or http://www236.megaupload.com/files/933a ... 1_0013.bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
