Each tool has a help text showing up when ran with no arguments, check it out!
The tools have no logic for handling low memory situations so make sure you have a decent amount of memory (RAM) free. I cannot help with anything related to "OutOfMemoryException" errors.
I recommend to use the provided powershell scripts (.ps1 files) (with the necessary personal edits) for each tool. By default the scripts are made to use syncMode 0 (Sync) so if you want faster extraction/creation you must set it to Async or 1.
This is what you need if you want to extract the files from the MapleStory 2 game archives!
Usage: MS2Extract.exe <source> <destination> [syncMode = Async] [logMode = Warning]
<source>
and <destination>
are required arguments while [syncMode]
and [logMode]
are optional and default to Async and Warning respectively.
<source>
can be either:
- a directory: it will extract all MapleStory 2 game archives from that folder and all subfolders
- a file: it will extract only the specified file, you are not required to specify the extension so you can use either "Image", "Image.m2h" or "Image.m2d"
<destination>
must be a folder, this is where the extracted files will be placed.
[syncMode]
by default is Async. This has 2 different modes, Sync or Async or you can use 0 and 1 respectively. Sync will try to use less resources (CPU and RAM) while Async will use everything that it can get.
[logMode]
is the logging level of the output produced by the application, you can use either names or numbers, the following are valid: Debug, Verbose, Info, Warning, Error; in the same order are also for the numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
This tool is for creating your own MapleStory 2 game archive!
Usage: MS2Create.exe <source> <destination> <archive name> <mode> [syncMode = Async] [logMode = Warning]
<source>
, <destination>
, <archive name>
and are required arguments while [syncMode]
and [logMode]
are optional and default to Async and Warning respectively.
<source>
must be a folder, all the files, folders and subfolders from the given folder will be in the archive.
<destination>
must be a folder, this is where the created archive will be placed.
<archive name>
is the name you want to give to the archive.
<mode>
is the encryption mode for the archive. The supported modes are MS2F, NS2F, OS2F and PS2F or you can use 1177703245, 1177703246, 1177703247, 1177703248 respectively.
[syncMode]
by default is Async. This has 2 different modes, Sync or Async or you can use 0 and 1 respectively. Sync will try to use less resources (CPU and RAM) while Async will use everything that it can get.
[logMode]
is the logging level of the output produced by the application, you can use either names or numbers, the following are valid: Debug, Verbose, Info, Warning, Error; in the same order are also for the numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
This is not important, it's just there for exporting some heading data of the archives. (debug stuff)
