Why string.pac freeze if the size gets bigger ?

[CrocoX111]

Any idea why string.pac is freezing if the size it's bigger than the original ?
I tried to insert 00 bytes at the end of the file to add my custom texts because I figured out how to add larger texts than the original ones but that means I will have to edit size because there are not enough empty bytes .

I think we can only edit the stings ! I have just done it by the tut by kyle15 !

You can also add longer strings by editing the text ids but that means we need to insert the new text at the bottom of the file with hex

i think if you change text in strings and the final pac gets bigger ,only way to make it work is editing space for it on arc file. i edited this file but without longer text and the string.pac had same size working well

I think the problem is that I was using expert tools now I am going to try via hex .

editing on hex it's easy as i said but if you don't want to touch ARC file you have the limitation in the modding you do...for exemple , if you wanna replace text string " ECW EXTREME RULES " you have to "stay inside the letters "..->ECW EXTREME RULES ->WCW EXTREME RULES
in this case you can change ECW in WCW ecw (3 LETTERS)-> new txt wcw (3 LETTERS) . the string pac is only changed in txt not in new bites and it will be the same as original .

The problem was that I was using expertools but then I did it via hex and it worked
