Tutorial - how to merge CPK files

Merging multiple cpk files into one:

in this tutorial we are going to merge multiple cpk files into one file in case you want to arrange your customized files or you need to free up extra slots, in this example, we are going to merge the four face cpk files into one cpk that contains all four faces.


-------------------------------------------------------

1. Locate the extra CPK files:

Open the download folder of the game and locate the extra cpk files

-------------------------------------------------------

2. Drag and drop the CPK file in CRI file maker:

download CRI packed file maker v2.40.13 and run the tool, drag and drop SMk_extra1.cpk into the tool, you should see a face cpk file inside the tool window

-------------------------------------------------------

3. Extract the file:

after the file is opened in the CRI file maker, extract the face cpk file by pressing the top-right icon in the tool.

-------------------------------------------------------

4. Create an extract folder:

now you should create a folder to extract the multi-files in, in this example, I created a folder on the desktop and renamed it to (merge), select this folder and press OK.

-------------------------------------------------------

5. extract the next cpk file:

after the tool finishes, press ok and close the tool, now repeat the steps (2-3-4) for the other cpk files, extract them all in the merge folder

-------------------------------------------------------

6. Verify the extracted files:

open the merge folder, browse the folder real as shown in the picture below, all face cpk files that have been extracted there with the correct ID, note that the face files are all in CPK format (not a folder).

you can add more face cpk files in this directory, add as much as you want.

NOTE: faces must be in cpk format (like shown in the picture), all other files must be in folders.

-------------------------------------------------------

7.  Load the MERGE folder:

open CRI file maker tool, drag and drop the folder (merge) inside the tool, the result should be similar to the picture below

-------------------------------------------------------

8. Build the new CPK file:

now after the merge folder is loaded in the tool, press (build CPK file), in the small window rename the file to SMK_Extra1.cpk and press start to build.

-------------------------------------------------------

9. Replace the old cpk with the new one:

the new CPK file you created contains all 4 CPK files, now copy or move the new file into the download folder of the game to replace the old CPK file

you can now use the other extra cpk files to add other things.
