May 29May 29 Localization It looks like this is a file container. Textures are stored at the beginning, mostly in DDS format with clear DXT tags that indicate resolution, bit depth and file size. You can use this information to calculate the number of textures and locate their offsets. GHG.zip Edited May 29May 29 by KuWuniss6
May 29May 29 Author Localization This looks like a classic Activision layout: textures first, then models further down. Comparing with other Activision titles can definitely speed up reverse‑engineering.
May 29May 29 Author Localization The data blocks each come with detailed descriptors. This part is definitely skeleton data, though its specific storage format remains unclear. The models are split into multiple polygon chunks with a fairly simple overall structure. Further research is still needed to figure out how the index data is arranged.
May 29May 29 Author Localization Most coordinates are stored as floating-point values. Judging from the short length of the face index data, I suspect it uses triangle strips.

I need to fully parse the complete models along with their skeleton binding data. I know it may take some time before others notice my request, so I'll keep analyzing the files on my own in the meantime.

Bad decompression. 编辑：你是怎么拆解 low_hi 的？DAT？我看到它用的是 LZ2K 压缩，但 QBM 无法很好地处理。减压不良。 Sorry for the late reply. First, regarding the .DAT files: some cracked game versions have already unpacked them and placed the contents in the game directory. You can find character assets inside the CHARS folder. This game was ported from console platforms to PC, so there are two sets of assets with different levels of detail for models and textures, which explains the multiple .DAT files available. You can also find working BMS scripts online to extract data from these .DAT files — I successfully unpacked them using such scripts a long time ago. I'll share more GHG files here as well. ghg2.zip
May 31May 31 Supporter O.K. I noticed that LZ2K is chunked so i think thats the problem of wrong decompression. BTW i wrote my own script since i can't find one but i have been struggle with file names. Let's say there is 188 files but 224 file names and I don't know which file name is assigned to the resource data. EDiT: Yep they are chunked but can't find info about chunk count. Figured out chunks. Now it decompress properly. Only file names left. Now i see there are listed folders too. But not sure what to do. So here is hierarchy of _hi.dat. Now to understand the folder tree.
