(Pixelbite) Reckless Getaway 2 (Android, iOS) - .bar packed files

[Ritsuri]

Hi, I'm new to this site, but that's doesn't matter. I am looking for help to extract these .bar files used on Reckless Getaway 2 (and potentially other Pixelbite games like Space Marshals or Xenowerk), to get the music and in the future, search for unused content. I've doing some really basic research for myself with opening the file as a text file, surpringsly I found some stuff, at the end of the file there's a list of all the files inside.

Also I noticed is that the structure of (at least) this .bar file is very similar to the .vfs files found in some Zeebo and old Pixelbite games, sharing many file formats like .psn and .pxc. Also the header instead of "FUFS" is "CRAB".

But I can't find any info of how to open these .bar files. The most close thing I was see it was in a very old post of the .bar files of Space Marshals 2, another Pixelbite game that apparently also uses .bar files. Someone shared a script to open it but i didn't get the script working, also that post was made in 2016, and the game i'm asking for was released in 2017, probably a old script won't work properly. I attached the file I want to open, any help is welcomed. Thanks!

It's not hard to extract the archive, but if you need the sound in particular, i can't help you here as i don't have enough knowledge in sound data formats. If you still need it i can make the tool for the archive itself.

Yes please, it could be very helpful. About the sound files, vgmstream has support for the .psn audio files, so don't worry. You only need to change the extension to .psnd an vgmstream will recognize it without issues

You can extract it with this script. I also tried audio, and like you said, it work with vgstream
