Alternative ways to unpack/install levels (WINE problem)

Hi all,  :)

Back when I had a PC, I used to Play Knytt all the time, it was one of my favourite games. I've got it working on my Mac now using Wine, and I've had no problems playing the included 'Machine' level and the 'A strange dream' level pack. However, I seem to be unable to install new levels that come in .bin files. I can't drag them into the knytt stories window to install them, and the browse function just causes Wine to crash. Has anybody who rund Knytt in Wine found a solution for this? Is there a different way I can extract the level files?

Desperate to play Afar and Station 07 again :P

There's a topic somewhere on the forum (please [search] for it) that has a program that will allow you to extract the content of a knytt.bin file.

It was made by someone who was also playing it using wine.

Thanks, I've downloaded unknytt.py, and the levels extract perfectly :)
