  1. IPF Packer ^_^

    http://www.mediafire.com/?gk2nnomuljk

    Updated EXE which can pack faster (Need first download because it contains the databank)

    http://www.mediafire.com/?njjkji5fzmm

    It has some small issues with merging IPF's sometimes but I recommend making an IPF with it with whatever you want and then using the Granado Espada launchpad to merge the data.

    Merry Christmas
