Add a new beta or cancelled game to the U64 Archive Edit a page in the U64 Archive

This tool was created by me to help those people that want to decompress many ARC files (Wii games’ archives) at the same time. This will speed up your Wii beta researches! ;) (depends if the game has ARC files inside…)

ARC Decomp v0.1 beta

This tool decodes and decompresses .ARC files.
It is usually used for Wii/GC games’ data dumping.

Made by Mr.Game for Unseen64

Usage:

Just drag’n'drop files to decompress onto the program’s icon.
Then, the program will run itself.

The version 0.2 beta will include:

-A nicer and more user-friendly GUI
-If necessary executables aren’t present, they are automaticaly extracted
-You can set output folder

The version 0.3 Final will include:
-Registry-stored settings
-A nicer GUI skin
-You can add or delete files to queue one by one (drag’n'drop no longer necessary, but still present)

When I was writing this program I thought: I’m sure that gabrielwoj wil use it ;)

But really the initial purpose was to speed up the extracting of about 125 .ARC files containing all beta models from Super Mario Galaxy.
