Help with thanm.exe

[Torashama]

someone could help me, what happens is that in thanm.exe, when I want to replace an image in the file. anm this says:

Code: [Select]

C:\Users\Tora\Desktop\Touhou\C\datpacker-5> r thanm stg2enm.anm backup/stg2enm.png
  stg2enm.png
thanm: stg2enm.anm: backup/stg2enm.png not found in archivebut the file is there
what could be?  :ohdear: :ohdear: :ohdear:

oh, I use the model here:

Code: [Select]

- Alter the. Bat so that it is as follows
thanm x (anm file)
eg thanm x stg6enm.anm
-------------------------------------------------- -----------------
Replace images in the. Anm

-alter the .bat so that it is as follows
thanm r (eg.anm) (folder) / (image.png) (image.png)
example stg6enm.png thanm stgenm/stg6enm.png r stg6enm
and voila, you altered an image of the game :D
but it does not work with me  :ohdear:

You're telling it to replace "backup/stg2enm.png" contained in "stg2end.anm" with the file "stg2enm.png". The error message is telling you that this file was not found in the archive, not on your disk. Are you sure you haven't reversed the two files? Try this...

thanm r stg2enm stg2enm.png backup/stg2enm.png

Code: [Select]

Usage: thanm COMMAND
COMMAND can be:
...
  r[OPTION...] ARCHIVE NAME FILE  replace entry in archive
...
OPTION can be:
  f  ignore errors when possible

I tried that and still says the same thing:

Code: [Select]

thanm: stg2enm.anm: stg2enm.png not found in archive
I think it's because the file "stg2enm.png" is there, but isn't that name in "stg2enm.anm" but I'm not sure, just in case this helps:
These are the PCB files (th07.dat)
I extracted the files with Brightmoon
I created the .png images of the .anm with anm2png
I modify the images of Chen (stg2enm.png) with photoshop
Also let me know if the .png can be converted into .anm with datpacker

You can't replace a file in an archive when the file in the archive doesn't exist. If you extract stg2enm.anm and no backup folder comes out, then you aren't going to be able to replace things in that nonexistent backup folder. Skipping past the need to compile a new archive, why would you even want to "replace" images in a new "backup" folder if they aren't going to be used in the game?

oh thanks, then what I have to do is: extract the file that I want (stg2enm.anm), then turn it into stg2enm.png, I edit it, then I go back to extract the stg2enm.anm from the unmodified th07.dat and replace it, right?

when I try to create a new stg2enm.anm I get this error:
