Converter

> MMV64 can convert a file to a format readable by the N64 by using the converter associated with the file's extension.

> 1. Creating a Converter

> > When developing a converter for MMV64, please allow input files and output files to be specified.

> > Example: In the case of texmmv.exe (converter for texture viewer for MMV64)
> > texmmv INFILE1 INFILE2 -o OUTFILE
> > INFILE1 , INFILE2 ... Specify the input file
> > OUTFILE ... Specify the output file

> > Multiple input files can be specified, but they must be contiguous as in the above example. Only one output file may be specified.

> > Specify the input file and output file in double-quotes and use the full pathname.

> > In addition, design the converter so that it returns a 0 (zero) when it terminates normally.

> 2. Converter File Association

> > Once you have finished creating your converter, you must associate file types with it.
> > Click the button to open the "File Setting window" shown below.

> > - Select the "Use Converter" check box.
> > - Specify the converter program, using its full pathname, in "Converter". You may also locate the converter using the Browse button. If the converter is stored in a sub-directory of the directory `MMV64.exe` is in, the pathname will be changed to a relative pathname as in the example above.
> > - Specify the index number to be given to the converter in "Options for converter". ">" indicates the output file and "<" indicates the input file.)
> > - Select the "Allow multi files" checkbox when the converter supports multiple input files.
