I'm running out of ideas. Haven't heard back from the devs on the subject. Hopefully you have better luck aluigi.

I'm starting to think there might be an issue with the bms script. I'm almost certain that there are files with underscores in the file and folder names. And the bms script treats underscores as file seperators at the moment. Could be a change from Shadow of Mordor to Shadow of War. Would you be able to explain where the underscore as file seperator comes from? Might help me figure out what I'm missing with these filepaths.

When I analyzed the LTAR archives (the underscore->slash fix is used only on them) they had long names with underscores and no path separators, they looked like folders and not filenames.
I didn't find any separator in my tests with LTAR archives and nobody else has reported any issue till now.

Upload that LTAR archive that contains these full paths

That's really funny...

So, what you supposed was wrong, probably you were confusing the names of some archived BNDL or EMBB file with the TOC of the LTAR archive (the only one with underscore->path fix).

BUT while I was checking some LTAR archives here (yeah I ever verify what the users tell me) I noticed a sort of directory tree located after the file entries, luckily wasn't too hard to parse it.

Long story short: the filenames are only filenames without any folder separator, that explains why you were wrong with the image you pasted (it's impossible to have a full filename like "characters\modelcharacters\player\bodies\bodycelebrimbor\player_celebrimbor_quiverwraithproxy.mat") and I was wrong by using the underscore->path fix (maybe was it necessary in a very old version of the archives?).

Haha. Nice. The number of times I've theorised about a problem, gone to test it, and stumbled over the actual problem by happenstance. Still pretty busy at the moment. But I'm hoping to test that out at some point soon. Thanks for checking it out.

Hi everybody, I translated the game "Middle Earth Shadow of War" into our language. The QuickBMS script that wrote for Shadow of Mordor worked very well and extracted all the files, but I cannot recreate the .arch06 file back. Script tries to take the files into pieces and gives an error saying the file size is wrong. It gives an error even when I extract the same file and then close it back with no changes. Can somebody help me about recreate .arch06 files? Thank you so much.
