How do you use the .zip from Github? - shinyboy66 - 09-21-2019
For years I have wonder what to do with the code people does on Github, because often of times you can only download it as .zip that often of times end in a version of the real program but unpacked and packed on a .Zip
What exactly I have to do with them? I need another tool for open/install the zip content?

You have probably downloaded the source code. More often than not, it'll be a pain to compile due to dependencies. Some developers leave instructions for compiling in their readme.
What you probably want is a pre-built executable. Go to the releases page for this. The button is in the bar above the files list (commits, branches, releases, contributors, view license). Alternatively, append "/releases" to the URL.

It is actually, I try to compile my self and after it give me so many errors for open it, I decide to uninstall the Visual Studio (beside it was causing many rare errors on my PC).
And I am screw:
https://github.com/gibbed/Gibbed.Visceral
It doesn't have any release.
It is the only tool I found for extract the BIGFILE0.VIV data of Dante's Inferno, and the quickbms that exist for that game, well, it only extract .dat which for what I read you need to made a lot of change for unpack the real data. The problem? well, it has 4882 .dat after use the quickbms for unpack.
So that tool was my last hope

I had a quick look using Visual Studio Community. Seems some things are missing from that project. I don't have the time or knowledge to fix it.
