Currently I use the diabdata.txt (created, it seems, by jbouley) for MPQView to extract files from the MPQs.

I'm very curious to learn how this list of files was created. I'd like to be able to generate my own list of files, and perhaps go through the mpqs that came with the beta just to be sure that I haven't missed anything that blizzard forgot to enable or delete before going gold on the beta.

Thanks.

its pretty easy to generate a list file, run mpq2k and type
mpq2k l mpqname.mpq listfile.txt

this will save the path of every file inside the mpq to listfile.txt

DOH! I probably should have guessed that mpq2k would do that for me...

Thanks for the info.

I cannot really take credit for creating it. A helpful friend (Fireheart, in fact) bequeathed to me a very comprehensive file for d2data.mpq. I added the d2exp.mpq info that I got somewhere else to the same file, renamed it diabdata and stuck it up here.

I'm just the messenger, not the creator
