Talk:WBZ Converter
I am trying to use the WBZ converter and every time I try to convert WBZ to SZS, I just get a "Resource Temporarily Unavailable" error. It has worked in the past but I don't know why it isn't working now. --CBWDYM (talk) 19:51, 7 November 2018
Help
Can anyone tell me how to convert WBZ files? --MitsySueG24 (talk) 17:27, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
Why do I need the whole game just to convert one single file?
It's freaking pointless! --ComJacker (talk) 14:33, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
- You only need the track files, you should try to read more precisely!

Conversion Failure
I downloaded Underground Sky v0.7 from Wiimm's Custom Archive and converted it from WBZ to SZS, but major files(course.kcl, course.kmp, course_model.brres, etc.) were not converted correctly like this. Is this a bug by WBZ Converter? --CaronHT (talk) 18:29, 12 November 2017 (JST)
- Is your autoadd lib complete and correct? test it with: wszst autoadd -v
- -- Wiimm (talk) 10:33, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
- I checked many times whether the object files and effect files in auto-add are correct or not, but there were no problem. Is there any possibility that the original SZS were broken before being converted to WBZ? --CaronHT (talk) 23:18, 15 November 2017 (JST)
- I have tested now 2094 tracks and only 2 are different (other internal alignment, but content identical). Best is, if you send me 3 files for testing: original.szs, new.wbz and new.szs

- Oh sorry. I uploaded the wrong file. This is the correct file. --CaronHT (talk) 01:06, 19 November 2017 (JST)
- I deed, your error.szs file is broken. But I have no problems to convert new.wbz into the original "Underground Sky {D} v0.7.szs" -- Wiimm (talk) 23:35, 18 November 2017 (UTC)
- Hmm. Then something file in my library may be broken. I'll search the cause. Thank you. --CaronHT (talk) 15:33, 19 November 2017 (JST)
- Change with the next version of my tools:
- * wszst AUTOADD: With option -v, the command will list invalid files too.
- So you can detect errors in the autoadd lib.

- I found broken files and could convert new.wbz to new.szs correctly. Thank you! --CaronHT (talk) 18:58, 23 November 2017 (JST)
License status
What is the licensing status of the WBZ Converter? I need a tool to convert WBZs to SZSs for an open source project (likely GPL) I'm working on, and I'm unsure of the licensing status of the project. A clarification would be greatly appreciated. Luckytyphlosion (talk) 14:49, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry for late response, but I didn't notice this. The software license is GPL v2. -- Wiimm (talk) 19:35, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for responding. I assume you mean GPL v2 only, or is this GPL v2+? Thanks for clarifying anyway. Luckytyphlosion (talk) 20:08, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
Converting to U8 instead of SZS?
Version: "Wiimms SZS Tool v2.23a r8357 cygwin64"
Attempting to convert: Lava Fortress (Ugotowned35000vr) Alpha(?)
Original courses were taken from a vanilla PAL WBFS (this likely makes no difference but I'll note it anyway)
