Summary: Mac CD Talkie version Bin files not recognised

Initial Comment:
I have used HFV Explorer as requested, after having 
significant difficulty in finding an actual download for it, 
and managed to read my game cd on my xp system. 

One thing i noticed, as i looked through some of the 
CVS changelogs, is you have removed the RAW 
support for the game data files and are just sticking with 
the Mac Binary support.

Fair enough, but when I chose to drag and drop the 5 
critical resource files, not including the 6th resource 
named "About", it gave me a list of options. Raw, root 
forked, a few others and most importantly Mac Binary 2.

I successfully copied the data using Mac Binary 2 and 
into *.Bin files. 

I put them in a directory named Graphic 
Adventures/Misc/ITE and tried to add it as a scummvm 
game but it didn't recognise anything at all.

It said to use Mac Binary on www.scummvm.org and to 
use the HFV Explorer tool that the site gave reference 
too but the only binary copy method was Mac Binary 2.

There was no Mac Binary 1 or Mac Binary.

What version of HFV Explorer was scummvm.org 
refering to? Was it 1.3.1 or a much earlier version.

Apart from a BUG, the only logical reason I can see for 
why scummvm didnt recognise the Bin files is that they 
were in a newer Binary format that scummvm may not 
support yet.

Inherit the Earth is probably one of my most Beloved 
games and the fact I can still play it on my latest 
systems means a great deal to me and millions of 
others. I hope theres a solution soon.

Cheers.
