Hello, can anyone check these file formats to see if you can extract anything from them? I’ve already tried without any luck, but I figured some of you might know.
This link contains the dump I created, so you can skim through the files and take a look. If possible, could you also suggest or maybe even create
any plugins or tools that might help open them?

WMA is an audio file format (Windows Media Audio) and can be played by VLC. SFD seems to be a font file but FontForge can't open it

ARK files seems to be archive containers that contain inside them another ARK files and another files

Edit: SFD is a video file format that can be played by VLC too

Here is a python script with batch file to extract the contents of the ARK files, drag and drop one or more ARK files onto the batch (.bat) file

Also an ARK.hexpat file you can use in ImHex

ARK_File_Parser.rar

 

ARK.rar

Okay, thank you. Is there any way to open the formats contained in the exported .ARK files? It’s difficult to figure out where the models and textures are because the files are scattered everywhere, almost like an infinite loop. This image shows just some of the several formats found in the exported .ARK files.

Textures seem to be TCF files. Models are probably XCF

 I dont know how to reverse PS2/XBOX textures and models

Darn, thank you though! 👍

room.xmf (needs a suiting PS2 tri strips algorithm):

or simply smaller sub meshes:

That's interesting, What program are you using to view the models, and how did you convert the file to an obj?

[shak-otay]

Here's a link to hex2obj and some explanation.

After inserting suiting parameters for a model into the app you'll get the obj file by File\SaveAs mesh.
