# unpacker.py

Simple python 3 script for extracting movies, castlibs and xtras from Macromedia/Adobe Director projectors

This script allows to unpack Director files (movies, castlibs and xtras) included in Director projectors.

It supports Director versions 4 to 12 and the following flavors:

* Windows projector (.exe), 16-bit

* Windows projector (.exe), 32-bit

* Mac OS 9- projectors (data fork), 68k/PPC/FAT

* Mac OS X projectors (Intel/PPC/Universal)

* macOS projectors (.app bundle, Intel)

## Setup

macOS:

```

$ chmod +x bin/darwin/ProjectorRays

```

Linux:

```

$ chmod +x bin/linux/ProjectorRays

```

## Usage

```

$ python unpacker.py [-decompile] 

```

## Tests

Running

```

$ python tests.py

```

will unpack the 29 example projectors found in "test_files" to a new folder "test_files_unpacked".

## Notes

Director movies and castlibs extracted from projectors are always protected/compressed. If you pass "-decompile" as argument, the script will try to decompile/unprotect them using [ProjectorRays](https://github.com/ProjectorRays/ProjectorRays), binaries for macOS/Windows/Linux are included. The resulting files with suffix "_decompiled" can then be opened and edited in Director.
