Description Joe Jezak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-11 08:58:10 UTC 
Since blobwars 1.03, the pak file creation is broken.  It creates the actual file fine, but when adding on the # of files and position variables to the end of the file it neglects to swap them on big endian systems.  This causes the values to be read incorrectly when running the game.
