Hello! I want to localize comic book covers in punisher game 2005 for the platform xbox original.  I need help with images that are stored in xeg format. I know there is specialized software to work with ceg for the PC version. I also know peg (ps2) scripts. But neither is compatible with this xeg format... I know that tga files are stored inside. Can someone tell you how to be with this format or there is universal software for such files??? 
Would appreciate

Please share some sample files. And please send links to tools/scripts you are talking about. We are not fortune tellers...

For extracting raw data from archives you can use the same script you linked (punisher_ps2_peg.bms)
as archive file format is the same across all platforms https://rewiki.miraheze.org/wiki/The_Punisher_CEG_PEG_XEG

The difference is in the image encoding, PC version uses standard DXT5 or RGBA8888, while encoding seems to be different on PS2 and XBOX.
I was not able to find correct setting with ImageHeat.

Here's how it looks for PC sample:

But can't produce right width/height. It's 250 x 391 px.

Texture param:
res: 512x256 
start offset: 1024
Pixel Format PAL8
Swizzling type Xbox\ps3 liner
Palette format BGRA8888

This script for insert to raw. 

Spoiler

from inc_noesis import *

def registerNoesisTypes():
    handle = noesis.register("The Punisher xbox font raw", ".raw")
    noesis.setHandlerTypeCheck(handle, noepyCheckType)
    noesis.setHandlerLoadRGBA(handle, noepyLoadRGBA)
    noesis.setHandlerWriteRGBA(handle, texWriteRGBA)
    return 1

def noepyCheckType(data):
    return 1
def noepyLoadRGBA(data, texList):
    bs = NoeBitStream(data)
    width = 256
    height = 512
    palette = bs.readBytes(1024)
    pixel = bs.readBytes(width*height)
    pixel = rapi.imageFromMortonOrder(pixel,width,height,1)
    textureData = rapi.imageDecodeRawPal(pixel,palette,width,height,8,"b8g8r8p8") #BGRX888X 24bit
    
    #Im not test in game, if is BGRA8888 32bit just Remove "#"
    #textureData = rapi.imageDecodeRawPal(pixel,palette,width,height,8,"b8g8r8a8") #BGRA8888 32bit
    
    texList.append(NoeTexture("font", width, height, textureData, noesis.NOESISTEX_RGBA32))
    
    return 1

def texWriteRGBA(data, width, height, bs):
    if width != 256 and height != 512:
        print("Can't export. width and height not equal 256")        
        return 0
    imgPal = rapi.imageGetPalette(data, width, height, 256, 0, 1)
    idxPix = rapi.imageApplyPalette(data, width, height, imgPal, 256)
    for i in range(0,256):
        bs.writeUByte(imgPal[i*4+2])
        bs.writeUByte(imgPal[i*4+1])
        bs.writeUByte(imgPal[i*4+0])
        bs.writeUByte(imgPal[i*4+3]) 
    idxPix = rapi.imageToMortonOrder(idxPix,width,height,1)
    bs.writeBytes(idxPix)
    print("Export done!")
    return 1

Thank you for help h3x3r ikskoks !
