Usage

xv3 -l[2] logicnumber

This option extracts the LOGIC file whose number is the same as the logicnumber parameter. The optional 2 determines whether the conversion to AGIv2 will take place.

Examples:	xv3 -l2 120	(extract LOGIC.120 and convert to AGIv2)
	xv3 -l2 120	(extract LOGIC.0 and retain AGIv3 format)

xv3 -p[2] picturenumber

This option extracts the PICTURE file whose number is the same as the picturenumber parameter. The optional 2 determines whether the conversion to AGIv2 will take place.

Examples:	xv3 -p2 24	(extract PICTURE.24 and convert to AGIv2)
	xv3 -p 5	(extract PICTURE.5 and retain AGIv3 format)

xv3 -v viewnumber

This option extracts the VIEW file whose number is the same as the viewnumber parameter. Note that there is no optional 2 in this case since the formats appear to be the same.

Example:

xv3 -v 234

(extract VIEW.234)

xv3 -s soundnumber

This option extracts the SOUND file whose number is the same as the soundnumber parameter. Note that there is no optional 2 in this case since the formats appear to be the same.

Examples:

xv3 -s 8

(extract SOUND.8)

xv3 -l[2] ALL xv3 -p[2] ALL xv3 -v ALL xv3 -s ALL

The ALL option can be used in the place of the resource number when extracting LOGIC, PICTURE, VIEW, and SOUND resources. In each case, all of the resources of the given type will be extracted into a directory with the same name as the resource type.

Examples:	xv3 -l2 ALL	(extract all LOGICs in AGIv2 format)
	xv3 -p ALL	(extract all PICTUREs)

xv3 -w

This option converts the WORDS.TOK into a readable text document called WORDS.TXT.

xv3 -o

This option decrypts the OBJECT file.

xv3 -a

This option performs a complete extraction of the game data. All resources are extracted into their relevant directories and the WORDS.TOK and OBJECT files are converted as described above.
