WARNING: rrespacker is only intended for resources packaging. It does not include.rres files listing or viewing; To read and list.rres file contents it's recommended to use the open-sourcerres.h library.

rrespacker Standalone Additional Features

Supportup to 4096 files per.rres package
Supportrecursive directory files processing
Supportdirectory name mapping on CLI processing
Command-line support forbatch resource processing
Completely portable (single-file, no-dependencies)

rrespacker Usage

Load files by drag&drop or theOpen File /Open Folder buttons on top toolbar
Select file configuration options for data processing and embedding
If desired, save the resource packaging project as.rrp, to load it later
Build the.rres package. All files are processed as configured

For fast usage, just drag and drop the.rrp project over the executable, it will be automatically processed and packed into a.rres file. By defaulta central directory is generated with required details for data loading (generated file IDs).

For a more fine-grained usage,rrespacker allows configuring every resource embedding parameters individually from itspowerful command line interface. For details, just type on command line:

rrespacker.exe --help

It’s good tool but library is complex to use.
The rres-raylib.h depend of ress.h .
And ress.h is make for raylib.h .

So why can you create a limited version of ress.h with focus to loading asset from .ress .

raylib technologies309 days ago

Actuallyrres.h is engine-agnostic, it only depends on C standard library.rres-raylib.h is an specific rres implementation for raylib library; also intended to be a reference for other implementations for other libraries/engines. Withrres.h it’s possible to load.rres resources, independently of raylib…

I’m afraid I don’t understand the request but feel free to open an issue onrres repo for further review.

I tried to use the online tool, but I noticed that no matter what I do I always get at least 4x larger overall file size. Could this be a bug? For example, I have 3 files all of them is about 3mb, the resulted rres however is 20mb.

I depends on the type of files and the compression selected but it could happen.rrespacker processes the input files to extract only required data, i.e that implied decompressing images to extract pixel data. If you choose the embedding as RAW option, size should be approximately the same as input files.

Is a Mac build an option by any chance for the standalone download?

raylib technologies3 years ago

I’m afraid it’s not possible because I don’t have a mac to build and test the program properly. Unfortunately my resources are very limited… :(

I'm sorry to hear that! I'll join your patreon and hope can contribute to a potential Mac purchase someday :) Thank you for all your work on Raylib. It's a real joy to use.

Thank you very much! Actually I’m already open-sourcing some of my tools to allow other users to review/test/compile them for other platforms. Technically they should compile for Windows, Linux, macOS, RPI, FreeBSD and other OSs with no problem but it requires some testing. Maybe in the future I will also open source this one. Glad you like raylib! Hope you enjoy it! :)

Hi! An experimental macOS version has been added! It could require some additional work, please, let me know if it works for you.
