Can't Change ZIP Files to PAK
Hi, it's been over a decade since I last posted but I'm happy to be back, hope everyone is doing well.
I don't want to come off as a noob but this particular issue is driving me up the wall for several hours now. I'm fairly new to modding so please bear with me, I just want to start off by editing creature Witches' stats. I've been following [url=https://heroes5.fandom.com/wiki/.pak_Files]this[/url] tutorial and [url=https://www.celestialheavens.com/forum/topic/2658]this[/url] tutorial exactly right down to the very detail until the last part where they tell me to change .ZIP file name extension to .PAK name extension, as you can see from this picture, although the file name is changed, the file type remains unchanged, it's still registered as a .ZIP Compressed Folder. When I added .PAK to the name, it seems like the change is only cosmetic and the change is only reflected in the file name, not type.
I tried creating a .7z archive and it allowed me to finally change it to .PAK File type but then the game doesn't start up at all, so I guess the file should really be saved with .ZIP extension before conversion to .PAK. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is photo. I just wanted to change Witches' Attack and Titan Walking Speed. [url=https://imgur.com/a/BiZoIHF]PHOTO[/url]
Thread title is typo, it should read as .PAK file, I did not misspell it while renaming the .ZIP file. Please refer to the imhur picture. Thank you.

SOLVED. But I might have a few more questions about modding. Thank you
EDIT: Okay, new problem, I managed to successfully change .ZIP file to .PAC File and the Game is finally loading it however, the stat changes are unchanged. File Folder Structure is right, I double checked many times GameMechanics-Creature-Creatures-Dungeon-Witches.xdb but the changes are not being reflected.
It should be noted I'm modding a mod called Frax 3.4, so I am editing that mod's Witches' XDB File. Please help.
EDIT 2: I finally got it to work on 5.5. The stat changes for Withes are reflected on 5.5 Vanilla but is not showing up in Frax Mod, which I kinda prefer, to some degree. Maybe this is something I should ask the Author of the mod.
