Converting PAC/PCS files?

[zyborg]

If I only have a PAC file, can I open it in Brawlbox, save it as a PCS, and use the PCS? Also, same question in reverse.

Saving files as PCS files will compress them right off the bat.  For PAC files however, you'll have to decompress them manually, since certain PAC files are compressed.  Refer to the following image to know how to compress/decompress archives.

So, before saving a PCS as a PAC, I need to change the compression type to none?

That's correct.  If you don't do that, then the PAC file will be compressed, which isn't good when you're using characters that have transformations.

Basically, when your character transforms, the PAC file can't be compressed.  If it is, then the game will crash.
