Issue
I am trying to open PAKs with NMSDE, but no matter what, it never loads them. It gets to "Extracting PAK files, please wait..." and that's as far as it ever goes. I've let it sit and "extract" for fifteen minutes and it's still failed to extract anything - much less let me try to edit.
I had a suspicion this is due to the program not knowing what to do with Windows usernames that have spaces in them (as mine does). To test this, I then moved the program directory to a directory without any spaces in its username, and changed the workspace folder to that folder as well. Immediately it got past extracting the PAK; however, it hung on decompressing the MBIN, which is apparently not adjustable (unlike the workspace directory).
As a result, I cannot use NMSDE in any meaningful way.
Steps to reproduce
- Have a Windows Username with a space in it, and NMSDE installed.
- Attempt to open Game PAK file.
- Watch.
Expected behaviour
It would open the PAK files and decompress the MBINs as normal.
Other information
It seems that the program is thus unaware of spaces in Windows usernames. If it's not expecting that, it's probably choking because it's terminating at the space, as opposed to the whole userstring, and the entire program gets completely confused as a result.
