Introducing Packafied

What is Packafied?

Packafied is a Package File editor. It allows you to open Package files that it knows about and modify them. It also allows you to view or modify the individual files they contain.

What is a Package File?

A Package file is any file that contains smaller files within it. Many games now consist of one or more Package files. Examples of Package files include Descent HOG files, Quake PAK files and Doom WAD files. All these types of files are just container files for many smaller files containing data such as graphics and sounds.

How can I use Packafied

Packafied can be used for numerous purposes. For most people, it can be used simply as a file viewer, so that you can open up WADs, HOGs, or whatever else Packafied supports that you download from the web and view the contents.

Packafied is extremely important to people who want to create add-ons for games, like new levels for Descent 2. You can easily add, delete, rename or replace files within already existing files.
