Title: Extracting all the dialog from only the .exe?
Post by: tom567 on Tue 27/02/2018 20:16:46
Hello,

Is it possible to extract all the dialog lines from only the executable file? I created a game a long time ago but I only have the exe left.
However, the dialog wasn't using the latin alphabet, so I got no luck with opening the exe with Notepad++ or Sublime Text :(

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the link, I don't think we're talking about the same game?
I looked at the solutions you linked, however they both need you to have the TRS or TRA file in addition to the exe. Sadly, I only have the exe file :(
Did you find the russian tool you were talking about? It sounds useful!

I did not, and their site appears to be deleted for some reason. But this tool could be written again, because it is not very complicated.

I suggest continue this discussion in the forum thread I linked, because it's essentially same problem.

Locking this, just to encourage discussion in one place. (I think merging the two threads may cause confusion.)
