You have to use an SVN software, for example TortoiseSVN. After installing, you'll be given various new option when right-clicking on a folder. So, make a new folder, right-click on it, and select "SVN Checkout" or something like that (after formatting my PC I haven't reinstalled TortoiseSVN yet, so I'm just trying to remember). Then insert the SVN address that you find here: https://code.google.com/p/dotp2013mod/source/checkout

Apart from pushing your caps lock button... :lol: you should contact kevlahnota, but nobody knows how long it will take before he answers you. I don't think that membership is mandatory because I can freely browse the directories from my browser using the address in that page (and I'm not logged in). Try with or without the latest slash (after "trunk/"), or if it asks for a password, try with dotp2013mod-read-only as reported in that page.

If you don't care about WAD compression, it's the easiest in the world: just drag and drop a deck directory on Gibbed.Duels.Pack and let it finish.

Drag the most external folder, the one that contains "@header".

Then it would be good to know what's the error message. Extract this ZIP to the same directory where you have Gibbed Tools:
pack.zip
Batch file that calls Gibbed Pack
(193 Bytes) Downloaded 167 times
Then, instead of dropping the folder on Gibbed.Duels.Pack, drop it on the file you extracted. It will call Gibbed.Duels.Pack but it will pause after that, asking you to press a key to continue. This way you can tell me what it says.

(For the other users: yes I know that you can achieve the same result with the command prompt, but this is easier. :wink:)

Did you extract the ZIP file in the same directory where you have Gibbed Tools? You need Gibbed.Duels.Pack and my pack.bat in the same folder.

Your pack is in the same directory as the gibbed tools..it has a cog gear icon
