===============================================================================
 1. LEGAL STUFF & DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 This program is open source under the Mozilla Public Licence 1.1 (see
LICENCE.txt for details).

 Quickly: - Completly free
          - Source code available (see http://www.dragonunpacker.com)

 Any public version (beta, release candidate or final) can be placed on any
media for distribution (ex: CD-Rom, FTP, HTTP, etc..). But all text files must
stay intact, and no files can be added to the archive file (7Z/SETUP).

 This program have 2 differents types of releases (same content):
  SETUP - ~3.1MB - dup562exedrachac-setup.exe  With Installer (recommended)
     7Z - ~2.5MB - dup562exedrachac.7z         Plain 7-Zip (v9.20) archive

===============================================================================
 2. PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 This program allow you to see into the big files in games like Quake 2 (go
look in the baseq2 sub directory, see the big pak0.pak file, that's one) and
extract files to anywhere you want easily. It can also convert some weird
formats to common formats (like .ART Duke Nukem 3D files to Windows BitMaP .BMP
files).

 Version 5 brings modularity and a completly recoded program from scratch in
Delphi 6/7. This means much faster and better memory management than version 4.
 
 See the SUPPORTED FORMATS chapter to known which files are readable and which
file formats can be created/edited.


===============================================================================
 3. INSTALLATION
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 4. NEEDED TO WORK
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 You will need:

  * Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008/Seven.
    Tested under:
      Windows Seven Ultimate x64       (Hardware see below / UAC=Off)
	  Windows Seven Ultimate x86       (VM with 2x CPU and 2GB RAM / UAC=On)
	  Windows XP Professional x86 SP3  (VM with 2x CPU and 1GB RAM)
    Does not work under Windows 95.
  * The programs runs under Linux OS but by the mean of Wine and the display is
    slow as hell...
    The only way for a native Linux Dragon UnPACKer would be by using Lazarus
    and FreePascal compiler (this would also bring MacOS support I guess). But
    this is very difficult because not all libraries used by Dragon UnPACKer
    exists for FPC.

 Author's computer:

 The Tool Bar have the following buttons (in order of appearence):
 Open  Close | Options | []


 Left-Side Explorer:
 -------------------

 It displays the tree of directories in the file you opened, beginning by the
filename itself, then directories. Example:

 --- Exemple.PAK
  |--- Sound
  |--- Maps
  |--- Textures

 By clicking on the filename or on a directory the program will display in the
Right-Side Explorer all files found in that directory.

 By right-clicking you get a Pop-Up menu.
 If you click on the filename, you will get 2 options:

  + Extract all...
    Allow to extract all files from the opened file to a directory.
    This option is not always available.
    Directories tree is keeped.
  + Expand all
    This will expand all nodes.
  + Collapse all
    This will collapse all nodes.
  + Informations
    Open a little information window about the opened file and about the driver
    used to open this file format.

 If you click on a directory, you will have 1 option:
 
  + Extract sub-directories...
    Allow to extract all files in this directory and all sub-directories.
    This option is not always available.
    Directories tree is keeped.
  + Extract sub-directories to "entryname"...
    Like previous option but the directory "entryname" will be created in the
	folder selected and everything will be extracted in it.
  + Expand all
    This will expand all nodes.
  + Collapse all
    This will collapse all nodes.


 Right-Side Explorer:
 --------------------

 It displays the list of files in the opened file, a directory in this file or
the result of the search. Example: 

 File                    Size       Offset     Description
 Exemple1.WAV           36201           12     Sound (RIFF/WAVE)
 Exemple2.WAV           97321        36213     Sound (RIFF/WAVE)

 Here is an explanation for each column:

  + File
    The filename
  + Size
    The size in bytes of the file
  + Offset
    The offset of the file (starting at offset #0) in the opened file.
    This information is only useful for expert users.
  + Description
    Give the file type (Sound, Picture, etc..) and if possible his format
    (RIFF/WAVE, MPEG, etc..).

 By right-clicking on the filename you will have 2 options:

  + Extract file
    You have multiple choices, you can Extract raw data (without convertion) or
    Convert files during extraction (only if possible).

===============================================================================
 6. HYPER RIPPER
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 !!! For Expert users !!!

 Introduction:
 -------------

 This method for opening files allow you to scan it for embedded file formats:

 -669        - UNIT 669 Module
  AVI        - Audio-Video Interleace
  BIK        - BInKley Videos
  BMP        - Windows BitMap pictures
  DDS        - Direct-X Surface file (Textures)
  EMF        - Windows Enhanced MetaFile
 -FLIC       - Autodesk Animator FLIC files
  GIF        - Graphics Interchange Format pictures
  IFF        - Interchange File Format pictures
 *IT         - Impulse Tracker Module
  JPEG       - JPEG Interchange File Format (JFIF) pictures
  MIDI       - Music files
  MOV        - QuickTime Movie
  MPEG Audio - MPEG Layer III (also known as MP3)
  OGG        - Ogg Stream
  PNG        - Portable Network Graphics pictures
 *S3M        - ScreamTracker 3 Module
  TGA        - Truevision Targa (RGB only)
  VOC        - Sounds (Creative VOice)
  WAV        - Sounds (RIFF/WAVE)
  WMF        - Windows MetaFile (Aldus Placeable format)
  XM         - Fast Tracker 2 Module

  * = Not sure (file size may often be wrong).
  - = Many wrong positives (many "found" files are not true 669/FLIC files)


 How to use it:
 --------------

 Using the HyperRipper is pretty easy, but the results can seem quite bizare.
For example the HyperRipper will find files thinking there are of the searched
format, but that's not sure at 100%.

 First of all select the file you wish to scan (Source file).

 Select formats you wish to search for. You should select only files that may
appear in the scanned file. For example if you scan SNDFILE.DAT, you should
search only for Sound formats, and remove Picture formats (PNG, IFF/LBM, BMP).
 The HyperRipper will be faster when only 1 format is selected.

 When finished selecting the formats to search for, click on the Search! button
you will then have to wait some time (can be very long for Big files of 200Mb).
If you can put the file to scan on a RAM Disk, then DO IT!!!

 
 'Create HyperRipper File' option:
 ---------------------------------
 
 If you check this option, the HyperRipper will create a companion file of the
source file with the .HRF extension (you can change this filename as you like)
that will store all results from the HyperRipper. That will allow you to open
the .HRF file later with Dragon UnPACKer and have the list of found files
without having to redo the search in the HyperRipper.

 You can select HRF options in the 'HyperRipper file' tab. You have the choice
between 3 versions of the file:

 + Version 1 is the oldest version supported and is only included for history
   reasons (very limited). Can be read by Dragon UnPACKer since v4.00.
 + Version 2 is the extended format introduced in Dragon UnPACKer v4.13, it
   have more room to store information but should be avoided (also included for
   compatibility). Can be read by Dragon UnPACKer since v4.13.
 + Version 3.0 is the default and is recommended. Introduced in Dragon UnPACKer
   v5.0.0 Beta 2 it is made for HyperRipper 5.0.


 Advanced options:
 -----------------

 => Buffer size and rollback?
 
 The HyperRipper reads the source file searching for known structures, the 
 buffer size is the amount of data that is read from file each time. For
 example 256 bytes means that HyperRipper will read by blocks of 256 bytes.
 Because of this a rollback is needed. The rollback just goes back a few bytes.
 
 For example with a buffer size of 6 bytes and a rollback of 3.
 
 Source file: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T ...
  First read: A B C D E F
 Second read: D E F G H I (went back 3 bytes and read 6)

 That way if you are searching for a format that start by F G H it will be
 found. Without rollback it wouldn't have been detected.
 
 As a conclusion just use default values :-)
 Buffer size: 256 bytes
 Rollback   : 128 bytes
 
 You can test tweaking the values to get more performance. But only change the
 buffer size. The 128 bytes rollback is more than enough for all supported
 formats.

 NOTE: In v5.4.0+ those options are NOT modifiable anymore, the default values
       are 128 KB for Buffer and 32 bytes for Rollback.

 => Entries formatting?
 
 The make directories using type given by plugin allows to put all found videos
 in a sub directory Video, all sounds and musics in an Audio directory, etc...
 
 Naming options allows you to select the name of the found files. There is two
 modes:
 Automatic: Same name as in older versions.
            For ex: pak01.pak_0000003.wav
    Custom: You can define the name of the files yourself!
            You absolutly need to add at least %n, %o or %h somewhere in the
            filename or all found files will have same name!
            The "macros":  %f = source filename (without extension)
                           %x = extension of the source file (without point)
                           %n = number representing the n-th found file
                           %o = decimal offset of the found file
                           %h = hexa-decimal offset of the found file
            For ex: %f.$x_%h      pak01.pak_000002DF.wav
                    %f_%h         pak01_000002DF.wav
                    %f_%o         pak01_735.wav
                    %f_%n         pak01_0000003.wav


 'MPEG Audio' options:
 ---------------------

 To access MPEG Audio options click on Formats tab, then select MPEG Audio and
 then click on the Setup button.

 First of all there is a table with 3 lines and 3 columns.
 First column is for MPEG 1 format.
 Second column is for MPEG 2.0 format.
 Third column is for MPEG 2.5 format.
 First line is for Layer I.
 Second line is for Layer II.
 Third line is for Layer III.

 Each format have its own sub-formats (sample rate, bit rate) but you should
know that MPEG 2.5 is an unofficial format created to support low Bit Rates and
sample rates (ex: 8Khz at 8 KBps). You should also know that the most used
format is the Layer III (named MP3 or MPEG3).

 Following formats could not be tested (I lack files to test):
 MPEG 2.0 Layer I, MPEG 2.0 Layer II, MPEG 2.5 Layer I and MPEG 2.5 Layer II

 To select a format in order to search it in the HyperRipper only check the
option. To the right there is 3 buttons (1, 2 and 3) allowing you to select
only the Layer to search (ex: Layer I, Layer II or Layer III).

 Limits:
 By puting limits on the search you will lower the possibility of having false
MPEG Audio detected in files by limiting the number frames (a MPEG Audio file
is built up using a large amount of frames, the frame contents is the music)
and/or the size.
 I think a lower limit of 5 frames should be the minimum to use (an MPEG3 file
for example have 40 frames per second), by default is set to 20 (0.5 seconds).
 The lower size limit should also be set to at least 2048 bytes.
 Maximum size limit should only be used to cut the MPEG Audio in many parts
instead of having an HUGE single MPEG Audio file.
 Beware, setting the Maximum limit lower than the Minimum limit will not work..

 Special:
 There is sometimes special things in MPEG Audio files (mainly MP3).
 That's why there is 2 options:

 + Search Xing VBR Header:
   Xing Tech. added a small header to their VBR (Variable Bit Rate) MPEG Audio
   files. When present and this option used this will speed-up the HyperRipper.
   Recommended.
 + Search ID3Tag v1.0/v1.1:
   ID3Tag are informations about the song, Title, Author, etc..
   This is found at the end of the file. If this option is not checked the
   program will ignore any ID3Tag and will not add them to the file.
   ID3Tag v2.0 (found in the start of files) are not supported, and will not
   be supported.


===============================================================================
 7. OPTIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Basic Options:
 --------------

 + Do not display Loading screen
   This will remove the introduction box (Dragon UnPACKer) displayed while
   the program loads on startup. Checking this won't make the program load
   faster. 
 + Only allow one instance at once
   This will limit to one instance of the program running at once.
   Further tries to launch the program will make the currently opened instance
   to open the clicked file.
 + Use Smart Format Detection when opening files
   By default the program will check the file format by looking at his
   extension but sometimes this is impossible, so by checking this option the
   program will read the file header to check for the file format. Recommended.
 + Get icons from Windows registry (may be slower)
   By selecting this options the icons for file types displaying in Dragon
   UnPACKer 5 are taken from the registry of Windows (ex: WinAmp icon for MP3
   files). If this option is slowing down your browsing in DUP5 you can disable
   it, DUP5 will then use internal icons.
 + Use HyperRipper if no plugin could open the file
   When no driver can load the file then HyperRipper will be displayed with the
   current file selected as source.
   If this isn't checked then a message box is displayed saying no driver could
   load the file.
 + Auto-expand the folders at opening
   If this isn't checked the folders on left-pane will not auto-expand once a
   file is loaded.
 + Keep the selected file type in open dialog
   If this isn't checked the open dialog will not remember the previously
   file type and "All files" will always be used.
   
 + Language
   Allow you to select the language used for Dragon UnPACKer.
   Language change is made on-the-fly (no restart needed).
   The homepage URL displayed is the Language file author one.
   (See Utils\Translation.Txt)
   You can click on Find more translations, this will run Duppi program and
   show all available translations to download from the website.

   NOTE: Translations (other than English/Spanish & French) are done by third
         parties. Therefore new translations can appear months after a release.
         Check now & then if your language is not available yet (or go ahead
         and translate it yourself! Don't forget to send me the translation!).
         (See Utils\Translation.Txt)


 Advanced options:
 -----------------

 + Temporary Directory
   This directory is used to store temporary data files for ex when pressing
   open on embedded files, they are first extracted in that directory then
   opened by their associated program. It is also used during convertion for
   some obsolete (DUDI v3) plugins.
   You can either use the auto-detected one (Current user Windows temporary
   directory) or define one yourself (for ex: Ram disk).
   
 + Options for 'Open file'
   Changes the behavior when double clicking on the right-side explorer pane.
   By default the file is Opened by the associated program.
   If you prefer you can set: Make 'Extract file... Without Convertion' the
   default option
   
 + Drivers plugin entries integrity
   By default (and in order to maintain integrity), Dragon UnPACKer considers
   0 bytes entries as "wrong" and will just skip them (if you have the log
   verbosity at maximum you will get a message in the log when such an entry is
   skipped).
   If you really NEED to see those entries in the list, just set the following
   option:
   Do not ignore files with size = 0 bytes (not recommended)
   It will take effect the next time a file is loaded.
   
 + Buffer memory
   The buffer memory is used for extraction (when handled by Dragon UnPACKer).
   The default buffer is enough for optimal speed, but you can change it if
   you want.
 
 
 Execution log:
 --------------
 
 This allows you to setup the execution log:
 + Display it or not
 + Select the level of detail, there are 3 levels:
     Low - Will only show important messages and all errors
     Medium
     High - All messages, warnings and errors are shown


 Plugins:
 --------
 
 This allows you to see the list of loaded plugins and their version.
 
 The "Advanced Informations" contains informations about :
 + The interface version of the plugin :
     DUDI for Drivers
     DUCI for Convert
     DUHI for HyperRipper
 + The internal version of the plugin (mainly used by Duppi).
 + For drivers this panel also have a priority field:
   Basically for expert users this allows to prefer one driver over another one
   when trying to open files.
   For example:
   If you want drv_mix to try opening a file before drv_default you will give
   drv_mix a priority higher than for drv_default.
   Maximum priority: 200
   Minimum priority:   0

 If a plugin got an information dialog the "About..." button will be enabled. 
 If a plugin got a configuration dialog the "Setup" button will be enabled.
 
 
 Look/Icons:
 -----------

 This allows you to choose the icons used by Dragon UnPACKer.
 There is only one available at the moment "XT (XP Look)". 


 File association:
 -----------------
 
 This section allow to associate files to Dragon UnPACKer to be able to open
those file in the windows explorer (for example) with Dragon UnPACKer.

 If an extension is checked it is associated with Dragon UnPACKer.

 There are 4 options:
 + Verify associations on start-up
   On start-up all selected extensions will be associated with Dragon UnPACKer.
 + Use external icon
   If you prefer another icon for the extensions, use an external icon instead
   of the internal one.
 + Change the association text
   Instead of Dragon UnPACKer Archive, use whatever you prefer.
 + Add Windows Explorer extension "Open with Dragon UnPACKer 5"
   By right clicking on any file in Windows Explorer you will have the option
   to open it with Dragon UnPACKer.
 
 
 Preview:
 --------
 
 This section is all about the preview feature, you can enable/disable the
 preview and set the stretched/shrinked/full size option.
 
 You can also disable the threshold limit for preview size:
 The extraction for certain file formats can be slow, therefore the preview
 can be very sluggish. In order to avoid this, there is a limit for the size
 of the embedded file. If the size is bigger it is not extracted and not
 previewed. The default of 2MB is sometimes slow, you can set it to whatever
 you prefer or disable the limit completely (always preview, this is NOT
 recommended).


===============================================================================
