Hi!

I want to extract the Loading Screens from the Eclipse expansion, but there's no manual patch, so I can't find the files anywhere. Does anyone have by some chance the Eclipse/Riptide/Warfront version of PWI? They all have the same loading screens. I didn't think of extracting them before and then Elysium came and changed the theme...

So if anyone has not played PWI for a while but still has the game installed, please check. Elysium came on April 12th, so any version before this date is good.

The file where the loading screens are is called "surfaces.pck".

I managed to extract all Loading Screens from all expansions, except Eclipse. It's the only one missing. If I can get them, I'll upload and post on the forum all Loading Screens from all expansions :)

    there havent been manual patches in years, from what i've heard. There was supposedly some kind of issue with them. You're best bet is probably do an auto-patch. (But i may be wrong on this)

    Asterelle posted them +/- 2 years ago, although with the chinese text, but that just looks better than the english stuff.
    I don't recall if they actually were remade with eclipse in it or not, but here they are: http://imgur.com/a/orLaD​​

    The only fitting image for this forum.

    Thank you. That'll do for now until I find the english ones.

    You are wrong on this Btw. Here's what you should do...
    KEEP those ideas, to the original threads you started them on and STOP making new threads on the exact same subject or derailing other people's threads with your ideas.

    Maybe this JSON list of old available patches will help you. Size is in MB, date is last modification.
    CUP files can be extracted and decoded with sPCK.

    Eclipse is v829. The manual patches are up until v817. They didn't release manual patches since then. That's why I can't find them, that's why they're nowhere and nobody has them. Yeah, I found those patches too and extracted the files from them for the other expansions. Thanks though.

    Arc Support doesn't seem to have them either. Bullsh!t
