The tools has been merged into scummvm-tools program. Bat files have to be updated and it is an oversight.

But generally the tool is deprecated since we now support original SMK files.

Actually I built it myself. I am clueless why the official win32 builds miss that tool though.

have installed the svn win32 version and the tool is there, have modified the bat files to use the correct command but getting an error

Code: Select all

Encoding video...Fatal Error : Could not open file wasting.smk0000.png
maybe a bug as works fine with the encode_dxa.exe taken from an old version of the tools - scummvm-tools-0.11.0-win32.zip
