    I have an older copy of Starbound from Glad Giraffe on my computer now, thanks to an acquaintance of mine. As a result, I can unpack modpack files. Several older mods were uploaded in that format and are now un-unpackable using the current Starbound unpacker executable, so I am one of the few who can unpack them. So, if you would like to see an old modpack mod unpacked into raw assets, feel free to reply to this thread and link the mod you would like to see unpack. I will see what I can do.

    Because the asset permissions are so lenient, here's the zip file of the unpacked assets:

    Could you please try with this mod? It was packed back in 2014, early june, and never able to unpack it since then. I've lost all backups so if you could unpack it I would be really gratefull.
    Thanks!

    Unfortunatly the mod permissions does not allow it.

    "You must get the author's consent before altering/redistributing any assets included in this mod."

    The thing is, i'm the mod author, as you can see here and i lost the unpacked assets long ago, that's why i'm asking here if he coukd unpack it;that mean he has my consent to unpack it and post it here.

    Those sentenced exist to be ignored... For real, who cares about this kind of info?

    Removing credits: no, everything else: ok

    Chucklefish cares. You think all those dead mods are dead because no one wants to update them?

    Heh... touche. lol. My bad.

    Ignoring the confusion from above, as I didn't think to check names...

    I honestly expected better from you. Disrespecting the author's wishes is quite low.

    The file is too large unpacked to attatch to this post, but here you go: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7-d_0WxqHTFOS1hUG00bHBiTXc

    This is my thread so just let me worry about the mod permissions. I am a stickler about them just as much as you are. Even if the mod has disallowed public redistributing, I can still unpack the mods assets. I will also do a semi-thorough check to avoid confusion like this...

    You can still unpack files - as learning from mods in how it works is a great way to get new ideas.
    The only problem is a person cannot redistribute it.

    I tried to unpack both modpacks in the download but the old Cheerful Giraffe modpack version is apparently incompatible with the older asset_unpacker.exe I am working with. So, I've uploaded just the Glad Giraffe version. Whether or not this will be useful is another story.

    (Mod asset permissions are lenient,)

    I doubt that looking at the old scripts for disassembling the old gun types will help with an update, but here you go:
