ROM Hack NARC Explorer - Hacking tool to modify NARC archives

[Treeki]

Tanks told me to post this here. Original post: http://jul.rustedlogic.net/thread.php?id=2351

Remember Nitro Explorer? This is basically the same, but for NARC files. You'll find them in many DS games.
Same GUI and everything as NE - it's almost the same program. Created (edited?) in half an hour.

You'll need the .NET Framework 2.0 to run this. Don't post stupid questions like "what does this do". In short: it lets you change files inside NARC archives (similar in concept to a Zip file for example, but without compression).

Support for NARCs with no filenames (such as those in Pokémon D/P) is not implemented yet. I'll probably update it with this if anyone shows interest. It's 4:06am over here and I probably should be in bed, I can't even see the scrollbars in IRC properly.. Not tested much, so make backups of your NARC files before editing them.

I was getting tired of being unable to hack NARC files so I started looking into them. I found that they were eerily similar to the NItroROM format, so I pressured Treeki into looking into it. He confirmed my suspicions and ended up making a whole new tool built off of his old one faster than I thought it would take!

Thanks Treeki, it is also pointlessly early so I will try it when I wake up.
