ROM Hack Atlus game hacking newb question

[shyanon]

I'm trying to hack Devil Survivor, and while I successfully got into the files with CUE's Atlus Packer utility, I can't figure out how to repack them. All the readme says is

Usage: PACKER file1 [file2]

- unpack 'file1.bin' into '@file1\\' if no 'file2' is specified
- pack files from '@file1\\' into 'file2.bin'

* you do not have to specify the '.bin' extensions
* 'file1.bin'/'file1.ndx'/'file1.idx' must be present in the same folder

Whenever I try to repack it I get
"- reading the original NDX file
File open error"
and based on file name experimentation I'm pretty sure it's still trying to unpack.

I've tried a few different variations on the command line, but none of them have worked.

Does anyone have experience using this utility and know what I'm doing wrong?

you could ask @Eldinen as he's translating the game in Spanish. I bet he has more knowledge about CUE's tools.
