Hello, I wanted to ask if there's any way to decompile the archive files from Serious Sam: Next Encounter to get models, textures or maybe even animations.

I attached a few example files from GameCube version (.ssw) and PS2 version (.w), finding a way to decompile any of these versions would be amazing.

From what I've noticed, they are level files and contain data for all models and textures that are present on that level, audio is in separate archieves (Spd & Spt)

I cannot find any info on what engine this game was made on (Few other games by Climax Solent used Renderware, so maybe it's Renderware too?), but definitely NOT Serious Engine or any of it's version(which was used for other games in the Serious Sam series).

thanks

Additional note: I noticed that these files can be decompressed using offzip (it seems they use ZLIB compression)

I attached an example file:
