Does anyone know how to extract the text from .arc files and then import them back?

What game are those ARC files from? Can you upload some sample files?

Hey! I’m so sorry for replying this late, I’m not getting notifications, so I thought this post didn’t get much attention. I’ll send the files later tonight so you can take a look when you’re available. Thanks in advance!

According to my research, this game uses two types of archives:
1. ARC/TAB - main archive type used by the game. It should look like this in the "Archives" directory:

2. SARC - so called "small archives". They are stored inside main ARC archives.

I've found only one script that was able to successfully unpack ARC/TAB files.
It is available in this topic here https://web.archive.org/web/20231017055851/https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?t=4272&start=30
You have to choose TAB file in quickbms in order to successfully unpack files.

There is also this tool https://github.com/Ekey/JC.ARC.Tool
but it doesn't work for me for some reason.

SARC archive can be unpacked with the script I've written https://github.com/bartlomiejduda/Tools/blob/master/NEW Tools/Just Cause/Just_Cause_1_sarc_script.bms
I've tested it on file "pc0/2658708".


I'm uploading file formats mentioned above as an attachments to this post.
