Hello!
I'm currently trying to correctly extract files from these archives. A comtype scan revealed that either LZ77WII or DS_LZX seems to be working. For most of the files this works fine but sometimes I get the message that some files are not compressed with this particular compression. There's no identifier for the compression either.
Here's the really simple script:

Code:

idstring "CRAG"
comtype LZ77WII
#comtype DS_LZX
get BNAME basename
goto 0x1c
getDstring IDENT 4
get MYOFF long
math MYOFF  = 0x1c
goto MYOFF
getDstring IDENT 4
get BLOCKSIZE long
get FILES long
savepos GOTOHERE
math MYOFF  = BLOCKSIZE
goto MYOFF
getDstring IDENT 4
get BLOCKSIZE long
xmath BIAS "MYOFF   BLOCKSIZE"
goto GOTOHERE
for i = 1 <= FILES
   get UNK long
   get OFFSET long
   math OFFSET  = BIAS
   get OFFSET2 long
   get ZSIZE long
   xmath SIZE "ZSIZE * 0x100"
   clog "" OFFSET ZSIZE SIZE
next i

Examples 2: http://www116.zippyshare.com/v/jr6KwuzF/file.html (quickBMS crashes)


Thanks for taking a look!

You are right, there is nothing saying if that block of data is compressed or not

This is my script:

Obviously I had to use a work-around to know if files are compressed or not.

Please note that your file 9 in the second archive was incomplete because the last file doesn't fit in the archive.

Cool, that's another way to get to the according block.
Thanks for the script so far!
I merged all the archives with another installment of Pokemon and these are the ones where the script crashes:

Thanks for further analysis.

Ok script updated but I can do absolutely nothing about the compressed vs non-compressed files so be prepared to "algorithm 115" errors.
Script 0.2
