  • '''bigfile_unpack_raw.bat''' : unpack pill.big with pure filetypes (no conversions).
  • '''bigfile_unpack_fortranslating.bat''' : unpack with TIM->TGA and ADPCM->WAV conversion which is useful for making your own BO PC translation.

  • '''tim2tga(test.tim).bat''' : TIM->TGA conversion
  • '''tim2tga(test.tim)_16to24.bat''' : TIM->TGA conversion with 16->24 bits conversion enabled
