Hacking Monster Bash

BASH1 requires NO crack. It is a free gift to you for sharing with whomever you choose.

The FAST System uses a custom method to pack data files that is based on the LZW algorithm (See LZW on Wikipedia)). C Code available here: deLZW.

In order to get to the compressed data you'll have to extract it frm the resource file first. See http://www.shikadi.net/moddingwiki/DAT_Format_(Monster_Bash). There is also a page there about the format of the Monster Bash Sprite Format and the http://www.shikadi.net/moddingwiki/IMF_Format|IMF music format] that you can get to once you extract them from the DAT file and then use deLZW to decompress.
