It&lt;br/&gt;
contains all the compressed graphics, sprites, sound effects, map files, etc.&lt;br/&gt;
used by the Ragnarok client. The main GRF is usually named "data.grf" or&lt;br/&gt;
"sdata.grf".&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="" href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/openkore/files/GRF%20Tool/1.2.0/"&gt;GRF Tool&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
- can read GRF/GPFs&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;a class="" href="http://www.grfbuilder.com/#download" rel="nofollow"&gt;GRF Builder&lt;/a&gt; - can read/write/merge&lt;br/&gt;
GRF/GPFs  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="grf-tool"&gt;GRF Tool&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This program can open a grf and extract file(s) from it. It has a Search&lt;br/&gt;
option and a handy Preview Pane for viewing text and image files before&lt;br/&gt;
extracting them. To extract a single file, double click it or select it and&lt;br/&gt;
click Extract. To extract multiple files, hold Ctrl or Shift while you select&lt;br/&gt;
the files (Ctrl+A for all), then click Extract.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h3 id="grf-builder"&gt;GRF Builder&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This program can open a grf, extract files, create new grfs, and merge grfs.&lt;br/&gt;
When opening and loading large grfs, it is slower compared to GRF Tool. In&lt;br/&gt;
addition to the file list view, there is also a tree view. There is a Search&lt;br/&gt;
option, but it only searches for &lt;em&gt;exact&lt;/em&gt; file names.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2 id="creating-a-grf"&gt;Creating a GRF&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Download and extract GRF Builder. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Make a folder named " &lt;strong&gt;data&lt;/strong&gt; " somewhere (ex: on your Desktop). &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Put files you want to add to your GRF into the "data" folder. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Start grfbuilder.exe &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Click &lt;strong&gt;New&lt;/strong&gt; and enter a filename (ex: YourRO.grf) &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Click &lt;strong&gt;Merge dir&lt;/strong&gt; , browse to the "data" folder, and click OK. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A progress bar will show as files are being added. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Click &lt;strong&gt;Close&lt;/strong&gt; , then exit GRF Builder. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2 id="what-about-g-p-fs"&gt;What about G &lt;strong&gt;P&lt;/strong&gt; Fs?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;GPF is the same file format as GRF. The different file extension it is only&lt;br/&gt;
used to differentiate patches from base archives.&lt;/p&gt;
