carlb Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 sound like you did not change the .zip to .pak seem you may have like this name.pak.zip you may be better to open a cmd box and look at the file that way to see what name its got then rename it or i may be wrong lol Quote Asus ROG STRIX B350-F GAMMING AMD Ryzen 7 1700x 32 gb ddr4 15 TB raid 5 HD Nvidia EVGA 1060GTX Win10 64bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggrorJorn Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Are you trying to open the pak file? because you can not open a pak file directly. Only code can open stuff that is packed inside the pak file. you have to rename it back to .zip if you want to have a look inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marleys Ghost Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 You can open a .pak with both winzip and winrar I have my .pak's for LE associated with winrar so I can double click them and look inside.

Andr3wHur5t Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 hi, the file name is the.pak i have no ext programs that should be able to open them unless 7-zip can and i want to make it so i cant see the files inside it. i have not used comand prompt in a long time and forget how to re-name a file in it if you can tell me the function that would save me alot of time. ,thanks Quote Tools: AC3D | 3D Canvas(pro) | Texture Maker(pro) | Genetica(basic) | 3D World Studio | Fragmotion |Leadwerks 2 | XNA 4 | Visual Studio 2010 Professional | XCode 5.x |UU3D Pro Programing & Scripting Languages: C |C++ | C# | Obj-C | LUA | Javascript | PHP | Ruby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AggrorJorn Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I don't use 7zip, but with winrar you can encrypt your data en set a password to it. There is also a command in the wiki. But I never used that. SetZipStreamPassword Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canardia Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I think Windows 7 does not support filename extensions in Explorer, so you have to use a DOS window.

paramecij Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Windows is set by default to hide file extensions for known types.. - you have to go under folder options in explorer under view tab and uncheck hide extensions for known types.. then you can rename zip to pak - in most apps you can just go file / open and select file type filter as any format (*.*) and then select a renamed file (same for saving) - you can try to double click a .pak file and choose open with and associate it with winrar, 7z or what have you.. - in command prompt (start / run / "cmd") type in "ren file.zip file.pak" to rename your file ..
