Version 0.8

  • Viewing of GTA IV files via function "Open Content"
  • Full support of the RPF2 format. You can add, delete or replace any files
  • Viewing and extacting data from RPF3 archives (file names are normal)
  • Full support of the IMG3 format. You can add, delete or replace any files
  • Textures replacing in any *.WTD and WHM files. The current version supports only PNG images and replacing files with the ones with same resolution. (For example, a texture 512x512 might be replaced only with another 512x512 one)

  • Ability to edit levels of texture.
  • Auto-check for available updates via WebIV

openFormats

The openFormats are a set of open, text-based, intermediate file formats that allows users to export/import GTA IV/EfLC resources into different 3D modeling programs like 3DS Max. Currently you can import/export openFormats files into 3DS Max with GIMS. The formats are similar in concept to .WSO files used in The Sims Resource Workshop, being that the latter also implements an intermediate format for easier resource editing.

WebIV

A special web-service called WebIV was designed and created for OpenIV. It is intended to help to developers to collect information about program usage, get user feedbacks and also for the users to stay tune and quickly check if a newest version is out.
