RE4 2007 GCA TOOL By JADERLINK

Extract and repack RE4 2007 GCA files

Note: the topic is being translated by google translator, because I only know Portuguese Brazil.

The content below is a translation of the README.md file of the source code.

Program designed to extract and repackage .DAT files, from the re4 2007 GCA format.
When extracting, a file with the extension .idxgca will be generated, which will be used for the repack.
Note: Repack is not mandatory as the game reads files from the extracted folders first.
Note2: The program does not support compressed files, and the original game files are also uncompressed.

Extract
Example:
RE4_2007_GCA_TOOL.exe "xfile.dat"

! It will generate a file named "xfile.idxgca";
! The file and folder structure will be as it was in the dat file;

Repack
Example:
RE4_2007_GCA_TOOL.exe "xfile.idxgca"

! The .idxgca file will contain the names of the files/directories that will be placed in the DAT;
! The files must follow the same directory/name that is in idxgca;
! In the .idxgca file, lines starting with the # character are considered comments and not files;
! The name of the generated file is the same as idxgca, but with the .dat extension;

Thanks:
Thanks to "zatarita", for his documentation of the GCA format and for his help;
