Sit File Reader

1. What is it?

Sit File Reader will build a list of files used in a track by reading the SIT and other track files. You have the option to save the LST as a text file which can then be edited and used with programs like cpod, winpod or tracked1/2 to reconstruct the pod or do additional editing. You also have the option to build a pod from the reader.

2. What you need.

• podview.zip
• SitFileReader.exe (updated Jan 15th)
• A merged pod file

3. Extract the merged pod using podview.

• Open pod
• Edit > Select All
• Files > Extract selected files
• Check "recreate directory structure" box
• Click OK

Give it a minute to work, then close podview.

4. Open SIT file in the Sit File Reader

• Click open button
• Browse to World folder
• Select Sit file

5. Save a LST or POD file.

• Click a button
• A LST file can be helpful for trouble shooting.
• A POD file 'should' work in the game.
• A log file is created that lists files not found on the hdd (also good for trouble shooting)

You will be prompted when it's finished.

6. Known issues.

• Won't read some bin files
• Log includes files not used in track
• Does not podzip but should work on podzipped tracks

7. Possible updates

• Prompt to save file name
• Read TRK files
• File search BIN files
• Rework the interface
• Read and extract POD files (get rid of podview)
• Who knows, maybe nothing...
