Yes, the pkr editor should work on the game because it's based on thps2 engine (or thps2 is based on MHPB engine).

Try other pkr unpakers. By the way it worked, but you can't read what is what so it would be really hard to change something.

i found some intresting stuff here
http://www.darklock.com/thps/pklayout.htmlit cleared some thing up for me
plus that i saw something about the structure of the pkr file
The existing process is the same as it's always been: manually compress the proper files into a ZIP file, naming them according to the internal structure of the PKR file
but i dont now how to create something like that in vb so thats shitty
but anyways thanks for your help

PKR files are packed extremely well, but I looked into the PS1 Version of Mat Hoffman's "BMXCD.WAD" and found a couple interesting things. There is no working wad extractor for this game, one existed long ago but there is no download for it anywhere at this moment. I found with a hex editor on this wad.
Levels:
the Treatment Plant.Burnside.Downtown.the School.the Warehouse.Competition Level 3.CFB Competition 2.Bluetorch Competition 1.La Habra.the Movie Set.the Park in New York City.the Construction Yard.the London Underground.chal_1.bmp.load_b01.bmp.Factory.Lights Smashed.Hoffman Bike.Bkfact_T.facility
Warehouse and Burnside from THPS1 are in the game (you can unlock them via cheats or completing career or scoring high combos) but "School and The Movie Set" look like some random stuff.

Seems great! I understand everything to a basic level. I'm just surprised someone would actually put in the time to make a tool for such obscure games, particularly Mat Hoffman. It is also really nice that you included THPS2 support.
When you do get it to work, it will be nice to look around and see how this game functions. I'm assuming there will be a lot of THPS1/2 leftovers. On various cheat websites there is a cheat code for School for THPS1, but when it is entered on the pause screen, nothing is unlocked. I'm sure there will be some interesting stuff in here.
I'm assuming you have the game at this point? There is network play for two players!
