Hi everyone, Over the past year I've taught myself how to program, and one of the things I did was create a small game in C#. I noticed that I could go to the folder containing all my game files and simply open these up to see their contents. I had never realized this, but if you try to do this for a game like MapleStory you'll find files with the .wz extension, and I could not find a way to open them. How do the people at Royals open or edit files like this? A lot of games seem to have their own files types (like .tf for TF2). Do these companies have to create their own ways to encrypt their game files?
Yes. Gaming companies can also pack their resources into a .pak file. There's many way to do it, and gaming companies aren't restricted to the kind of file extensions there are. For MapleRoyals, our files are stored as .mr after converting the .wz data. At least for MapleStory, you can easily access the .wz file with a HaRepacker which you can easily find online.
