RLE decoder - OS-PRIME - 08-18-2016

Okay this is a weird request, but if possible, I'd like to request a program that can decode RLE'd files. I need one becasue I'm stuck with Viewtiful Joe 2's stupid file encryption (which is Run-Length'd) and I have literially no knowledge about it.

Well unfortunately there's no uniform RLE format. It's more of a compression type, rather than a specific algorithm. That said, I don't have an awful lot of experience with different RLE files so someone feel free to correct me on this.

Regardless, uploading the files so we can check them out ourselves is useful anyway.

Sure thing!

It has a string that mentions RLE, and I think Anex said it was RLE'd. It's probably an archive of sorts.

Hm. Can't seem to get much of a lead on how it's put together. Some parts don't even look compressed. I might try some stuff but I can't promise anything.
