Hello,

when I open the .arc files in a text editor/Microsoft visual studio it comes out as weird symbols does anyone know how to turn this into somewhat readable code? also how to I open the .bld files? because they don't seem to open.

Ps. I am aware that there is another thread on this topics but none of the links work

Link for one of the .bld files for anyone interested (I can't upload .arc files):

in a text editor I can see the .arc contains other files but I cannot extract them with any program I try

I tried it, but it says

- signature of the four bytes at offset 0x00000000 doesn't match the one expected by the script.

It expects AGI but my files are IGA

it happens with both .arc and .bld files

Here it works perfectly:

Code:

  offset   filesize   filename
--------------------------------------
  00000000 124035     FRENCH.pak
  00000000 125341     DUTCH.pak
  00000000 34006944   level.bld
  00000000 119913     ENGLISH.pak

- 4 files found in 2 seconds
  coverage file 0    93%   14687019   15628363   . offset 00ee7810
  coverage file -1    0%   0          119913     . offset 0001d469

It looks like the bld file you used there is corrupted while the one you posted is ok.

is there any way to extract files that have an "IGZ" header?

because I can't extract the .pak or .igz files

Thanks for your help aluigi

For IGZ search the following on Google (or directly the search here on the forum):
"igz" site:zenhax.com
