Hello all, I'm looking for a mac (OS X or OS 9) tool to create .rez files. Does anyone know where I might find one? Thanks in advance.

I believe EVONE comes with one, and I believe that David made one too...

RezConv is a drag and drop converter between Contraband's .rez format and the native EV plugin format (resource files). With such a simple interface, plugin conversion could not get any simpler - you can click the Convert button or just drag the file onto RezConv's icon to bring up the save dialog. RezConv will determine the file type itself and automactially convert to the right type. Just click save.
Entarus,

K, thanks guys. I guess I should have specified something. I'm looking for an application that can turn any file into a .rez. I'm not actually trying to create a Windows Nova plugin. I'm trying to create plugins for a game called No One Lives Forever. NOLF's plugs for the the Mac and Windows version are in the .rez format. I tried using RezConverter to convert some text files into .rez however that didn't work (when the files came out they had lost all their data). The only other way I know of to create .REZs is to use the Rez console that comes with Apple's XTools. I've looked into it, however I was unable to figure it out. If anyone either knows how to use the Rez MPW console or knows of an app that can turn any file into a .rez I would greatly appreciate your telling me. Thanks.

The Contraband-created '.rez' format used by EV Nova for WIndows is not the same format as Apple's Rez resource scripting language, so tools for one won't work for the other. It's unlikely your game uses Apple's Rez, as it's a text-based format intended for compilation into standard resources, and it's quite possible that its '.rez' files are another format entirely (unless, of course, it's a Contraband-created game).

Mine only works in the opposite direction, since Ambrosia and Contraband already addressed conversion to Windows.

No matter which .rez format you are referring to, the only source files it works with are Mac resource files. RezConv can turn any resource file into a Contraband .rez file. As for the Apple Rez format, it is somewhat deprecated, so you would have to look at the MPW or Metrowerks CodeWarrior docs. I can't think of a solution off the top of my head.

K, thanks again for your help guys. I'm not sure if NOLF uses Contraband's .rez format, I think it actually uses a modified version of contraband's .rez called LithRez. Anyhow, thanks for all your help, I'll figure it out.
EDIT: O, one more question. Does anyone know where I can find the specs on Contraband's .rez format. I'd like to make a .rez tool myself.
