    I remember asking about the .pak files from the PC version of this game, which are archives of every level containing data. The PS2 version is different, in that rather than there being multiple files, there's one big file with all of the data named DATA.DAT I've looked online and found nothing, so if anyone can give some pointers it would be appreciated

  3. The brres files (used in multiple Wii games like Super Smash Bros. Brawl) in this game appears to use huffman compression. Here is a sample zip file containing a brres file under the filename of ch01a_gintoki.bcmdl that was extracted with multiple quickbms scripts. ch01a_gintoki.zip

  4. I went to look up information about the Transformers: RotF game for the Wii and found nothing. I tried a quickbms script that's supposed to extract data from rkv archives but it didn't work. I attached what seem like the two main archives that contain the game data Bpkdata_wi.rkv data_wi.rkv

  5. I try to decompress the compressed file of a certain game, LZMA compressed file Because it has a four-byte LZMA identifier followed by a four-byte decompression size I skipped these bytes and tried to use python's lzma library to decompress, but it said that the compressed file was not in the correct format Does it require special treatment? Can you discuss the specific decompression logic? Thank you very much. I attach a compressed file here. Additional: This game is Ace Racing from NetEase, developed using messiah. The other compression algorithm zzz4 (lz4) has been successfully processed and decompressed in python by referring to other scripts, but lzma keeps g…

    So since the demo dropped today, let's try to figure out if it's encrypted or compressed! So here's the files. 3 files not included in the 7z due to them being big on filesize.. I'm gonna assume 0001 files is for text, while 0002 is voice audio. If anyone needs the bigger files to check with, let me know.

I looked online for some way to extract the data from the arc files of the Shark Tale game for GameCube Game Extractor says it's able to extract the files from the Over the Hedge game which was made by the same developers. I tried both Shark Tale and Over the Hedge files and it didn't work. I put the datasets.arc file on Google Drive if anyone knows how I can deal with this

    Hello! I ask for your help please to decrypt the files of Bombergirl PC. I want to open them in Assetstudio to extract the files (models, images, anims etc), I've tried several versions/forks but the files can't be read. There was an old beta version back in 2022, it can be opened with Assetstudio, sadly it has very few assets and I would like to extract the current version. Some assets from the current pc version and beta attached here: Drive Thank you!

    I'm trying to mod the DMC1. I was able to extract the textures, but I couldn't understand how the files with the extension fsd work. It is also supposed to include the game's text. Somehow I figured out where the text is located. I will upload a picture from the HX program that shows the place that is supposed to be text. There is supposed to be text written here that appears in the game: (no password). And here is the fsd file in case someone can figure out how to extract it. r002fsd.rar

  16. Hello I want to extract the models and animations of the game Heroes of Atarsia (originally named Dark Blood Online but this is the Malaysian version and it closed in 2015), they are compressed in .jpm format, after using quickbms to extract the files I get many .j Files. I would like to view the models and animations in noesis or blender but I can't find a way to decompress those files, attached a couple of models and one ani file on the zip. Also I attached a working noesis plugin which works for the original version of the game but not this version, not sure if that's of any help Thanks! Heroes of Atarsia J Files.zip

  17. Hello. I have trouble with finding out how to decompress chunk of data that can be found in some phyre files of Dragon Quest Builders 2 for Nintendo Switch. It seems like they are using LZW. Header always starts with 3 bytes - 0x78, 0x2, 0x1 Dictionary always starts with range of 128 bytes from 0x0 to 0x7F, then it starts adding new entries to dictionary from with shorts like 0x180, 0x181, etc. After some point this scheme breaks. I am guessing that this data uncompressed should contain pointers, sizes and formats of each texture inside that phyre file since they are nowhere else available. In attachments I'm sending copied compressed data to separate …

  18. Hi the post I'm going to be referring to is: The models are compressed and I don't know how to decompress them, which makes them pretty much unusable in their current state. In this post, the author has a decompressed version of the model file (albeit not a particularly useful model example, but certainly something nonetheless) I don't have a compressed vs decompressed state version of that exact model for comparison, but I will provide you here with a few compressed files and hopefully someone can figure out something with it. Thanks! https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/t8qwu7z9o71uwlmz8wom6/AJea2uhH3bbC20PukBSTH3U?rlkey=a88aen4vx9m2a5xhg90llvag3&st=xhtsq952&am…

    Samples .rarHow would one extract the PKGS used in Malice? I can't find any PKG extractors able to take them apart. I'm able to get stuff like audio through other programs, but I'd prefer to have the whole uncompressed PKG so some help would be greatly appreciated, included in the Rar is a couple of Pkgs connected to Malice herself, it's stuff like Malice carrying different weapons and different forms. (For context, I run a Malice wiki and I've been documenting stuff like file types due to the lack of documentation on the game)

    I have some pkg files from the iron man 2 game on ps3 but the standard pkg tools cannot extract them, can anyone help me? Samples:IronMan2_Samples.rar

  22. After an extractor was made for the .bin files (thanks, BloodRaynare), there are now these .atp files, which may be compressed. I'm not entirely sure if these files contain models/textures though, but it would be great if anybody with more knowledge will take a look. When opening these files in a hex editor, they do appear to have some patterns. Here are some sample .atp files attached: atp.rar

  24. A BMS script already exists to unpack CS:HRTR's .bin archives. However I believe it may not 100% work as intended. When it was first created (from what I remember) the BMS extracted everything, but the audio .wav files didn't play back. An update from the original creator fixed it, but the rest of the file formats remain unusable. This means that .tga textures for example need to be reversed - but it is entirely possible that might not be needed, if the BMS can properly extract their header information. This, I believe, is missing from every other file format in .bins extracted with the BMS script - except for .wav. I've verified this is likely the case by …

  25. Hello! I would like help figuring out just the password to the encrypted PAK files (named Asset0.pak, Asset1.pak, etc.) in the assets folder of the 2020 game Mystery Case Files: The Harbinger, downloadable as a free trial here: https://www.bigfishgames.com/us/en/games/15406/mystery-case-files-harbinger-ce/?pc&lang=en I have spent much time trying to figure this out to no avail. I know previous games by the developer GrandMA Studios had the password 'aca7b3e6-50dc-5fae-9218-d9a8df85542d', but this password no longer works for The Harbinger and other games since. Again, any and all help is appreciated!
