Title: PPob resource decompiler
Post by: OS923 on March 05, 2018, 09:39:17 AM

I would like to decompile PPob resources. There's someone who claims that this can be done with MPW:

How does it work?

DeRez can technically decompile them...


But to edit them you probably want to use Metrowerks Constructor.

Yes, it decompiles, but it's then shown as a hex string, not very useful. I'm working on my own decompiler now.
