Hi Alucardo,

We're currently updating the Edge packer as well as the file format itself (however, reading Edge packages will remain backwards compatible).

When reading a single file from an Edge pack it needs to be read at once (especially when it is compressed). I suggest to split up the file (if it is too large) or fetch it with PackGetFileData() and start reading at filedata[startposition].

Version 2.0 of the Edge packer will introduce a new file format (which is more secure, and faster to read/write) and will contain extra information such as pack and original file date.

Also the Edge packer program will be more user friendly and easier to work with when using multiple vendor ID's. Also commandline support has been added.
