Hi,

I am working on a Promod Custom Ruleset Generator where a user can easily select the options they want in promod then generate their custom ruleset on the fly based on the options and values they have entered into the website. Now the custom ruleset itself is a .gsc file inside a folder contained with an .iwd file.

Using PHP I can use the inbuild compression module to create .zip, .tar, .gz. .zip etc files, it's my understanding that .iwd files follow the same principal however I would like to know if there is or any compression ration on the .iwd files and if using a compression tool would the .iwd files be compatible with Call of Duty 4. Do i need to generate any CRC checking or MD5 checksums to make the .iwd file compatible to work?

Many thanks in advanced and if all goes well I should have the first Promod Custom Ruleset Generator. I have been working with the original developers of promod as well to make sure different versions of promod will be compatible with my ruleset generator.

 

Many thanks in advanced,

It is my understanding that you can just zip the file as per normal and it will do its normal compression, then you just rename it to iwd. You may want to await further information from somebody more technologically inclined though. Too bad we are not fans of promod.
