This should be possible; I'm just unable to figure out the E-Reader tools available on the Internet. I want to decompress Animal Crossing E-cards.
nevpk.exe -i D:\ereader\nevpk11_lite\tomnook.bin -o D:\ereader\nevpk11_lite\tomnook.vpk -d
and get
error: could not decompress data
That's just one example command; I've tried many similar to it with variations on input and output format. I've looked at CaitSith2's and Firefly's E-Reader sites for information on how to use these tools. No luck so far. I've tried contacting Caitsith2, and I can't find contact information for Firefly (Tim Schuerewegen). Either way, Caitsith2 doesn't seem interested in responding on this specific issue: it's been months. I'm posting here as a last resort.
I try this command:QUOTE(Firefly's VPK Tool (Lite)) said:*************************************
* Nintendo e-Reader VPK Tool (lite) *
*************************************
This tool can compress and decompress Nintendo e-Reader VPK files.
Nintendo uses the "VPK" compression to put as much data as possible in each
dot code. The Nintendo e-Reader is capable of decompressing this data. The
compression uses a combination of LZ and Huffman.
