Usage
Currently only a CLI version of the application exists. The filename of the file to extract is mandatory whilst all other inputs are optional and will revert to defaults if not set. If extracting from the PSP version of the game it is possible to simply drag the file on the executable to extract it, this will extract all files. It is possible to extract a specfic page using its numbered index when extracting slot files, as well as extracting a specific stage by providing its name when extracting stage files.
If extracting SLOT.DAT it is required to have SLOT.KEY alongside it in the same directory.
Chrysalis.exe "path\to\STAGEDAT.PDT"
The above instruction will extract all files from STAGEDAT.PDT to the current directory.
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\STAGEDAT.PDT"
If you want to extract files from the PS3 version of the game use the -ps3 option
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\SLOT.DAT"
The same applies to SLOT.DAT. If extracting from SLOT.DAT, SLOT.KEY must reside alonside it in the same directory. This will extract all files from SLOT.DAT
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\SLOT.DAT" 23
The numbered index of the SLOT page to extract can be added in order to only extract files for a given index.
Chrysalis.exe -psp "path\to\SLOT.DAT" 23
The -psp option can also be used if extracting from the PSP version. However this is the default and therefore will be used regardless if the platform is omitted.
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\STAGEDAT.PDT" "init"
For the Stage archive the name of the stage can be added after the file name in order to extract the specified stage only
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\STAGEDAT.PDT" "init" "path\to\output"
Adding an output path at the end will extract the files to a specified folder of your choice.
Chrysalis.exe "path\to\cache.dar" "path\to\output"
It's also possible to extract from dar and qar archives. The Platform option is unnecessary for Dar.
Chrysalis.exe "path\to\cache.qar" "path\to\output"
Extracting from Qar.
Chrysalis.exe -ps3 "path\to\cache.qar" "path\to\output"
If extracting from the ps3 game it is required to use the option for Qar files, as it uses a different alignment value.
