How to install PostPet Snacks

Although the current, 30 day trial version of PostPet Premium has a blocker that will only permit Spacefood to be installed as a snack, all other versions can be "customized" by adding the snacks in the following manner:

  • Close your PostPet program.

  • Open Windows Explorer (or whatever file management program you use).

  • Delete the old food.pac files you wish to replace from the Snacks folder(eg for spacefood, delete spacefood.pac)

  • Paste in or copy the new food.pac files into the Snacks Folder

  • Open up PostPet again, and check if the snacks are there.


The Legality of PostPet Snacks

Technically speaking, all of the snacks here are "illegal" PostPet snacks. They are not sanctioned (or indeed, related in anyway) to So-net Communications, and so they cannot be held responsible for any funky things that happen as a result of your using these snacks.

Furthermore, the Japanese So-net/Sony policy is that by using such plug-ins and .pac files, you make yourself not eligible for user-support or help from So-net/Sony if your PostPet is damaged as a result... However, I do not believe that Sony Singapore has stated an official position on the status of user-made snacks.

These snacks were made by myself unless noted otherwise, using Kenichi Kobayashi's PostPet Food Editor. I've done a semi-legal translation of the program's instructions... it's still very rough, though, and was going to be translated in greater detail later. Although Mr. Kobayashi had authorized me to distribute this sorta-legal version of his program, and had expressed interest in doing a complete translation, this never worked out, and a less-precisely translated "English Version" ended up becoming the more-commonly used version.


Download the Food Editor (English Version 0.5) now!

To Download, click on the above and select "Save as" option, and save it somewhere on your hard drive. Preferably in the vicinity of your Snacks Folder... It was Self-Extracting, but I'm not sure if Xoom will let me upload it, so it's currently a zip file. You can use WinZip TM to open and extract the program file.

E-mail me and I'll do my best to send it to you!


Snacks I've Made

These can also be downloaded in self-extracting form at My Mirror Site (sorta) , provided that Tripod hasn't removed it yet.

It may take a while to load all the pics, but it has .exe files that you can "Save As.." on to a disk, and automatically extract by clicking on the file.

Go there now!
