ACE archive support would be nice, especially for version 1 archives as that seems to be better documented. The ArchiveTeam wiki has good resources for ACE archives, including a link to example files and software that is able to extract it. http://fileformats.archiveteam.org/wiki/ACE

I just discovered that there's a newer version of unace that's seemingly available that claims to be able to extract newer ACE versions, though I haven't personally confirmed that it works: https://github.com/wdlkmpx/unace

I believe this is done but ACE 2.0 is completely proprietary it seems. Not sure how popular ACE is
