These tools were created by me (Tom van Dijk) in 2000-2002. Eventually I lost interest when I went to study at University and unfortunately I never really came back to continue the work. I've lost most of the source code of these tools. I have some old backup of the source code of 26 October 2002, and I have the executables for most of the tools.
I recompiled XAbatch and I found an old FARx executable in my archives. The other executables I recovered from beyondsims.
- FARx
The main tool for editing FAR files, which are basically container files containing other files such as XA files and IFF files. - IFF Pencil 2
The main tool for editing IFF files, can do most of what the other tools can do. - Constant Contraption
Editor for the "behavior constants" (BCON resources) of objects in IFF files. - Strings Scavenger
Editor for the "behavior strings" (STR# resources) of objects in IFF files. - Animation Alchemist
Editor to change the animation names used by objects in IFF files. - Xantippe
Converts XA files to WAV files. - Career Creator 3
Specialised editor for the careers in The Sims 1. - TransPatcher 2
Simple tool to fix odd colors in later expansion packs, due to the palettes in SPR2 resources. - XAbatch
Mass converts XA files to WAV files, even inside FAR files (parameter-f) and in subdirectories (-s). This is a command-line application. Copy the executable to the root of your The Sims 1 installation before running it.
