Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

It's .NET code, which decompilers exist for. Thank you for that information, I will keep it in mind! Too bad that not all programs are written in .NET. :( is there any tools to repack assets, i mean only texts or any way how to use translated texts in game ? I have not yet heard of any tools for re...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

NodeViewer.exe and Hero.dll decompiled source code attached for those interested in how exactly it works but don't have the tools to do the decompilation themselves. Wow, that's great! Thank you very much for releasing it. :D However, I am wondering since I always thought that a compiled program ca...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

has anyone else gotten that nodeviewer to work? just crashes for me Yes, you can fix the program by opening the file NodeViewer.exe.config in Notepad or a Hex editor. In the file, you will find the line: <add key="AssetsPath" value="C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Star Wars\Assets&q...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Thanks for sharing that link, Rick! It seems like they have been working on the beta files since August, no wonder they are this far.
That NodeViewer will help us a lot in figuring out the format of the bucket files, and maybe we can use the Hero.dll for a TOR viewer.

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Finally I got my own MYP reader working and can start analysing the files. Thank you very much for finding out the file names, Rick! They're helping a lot with the analysis. Because of them, I now know that the "WEM file archives" have the file extension "*.acb". I'll update my s...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

By the way, have you already tried to replace the file extension of the known audio files (".wav") with ".wem"? This may give you some new file names. Also, you could try loading the file names from http://www.sendspace.com/file/ykt0va into your program and see if there are new o...

Yes, I am also currently working on a tool to do just that, but right now I am working with the final beta version. I hope to finish the tool soon so that I can compare the beta files with the retail files.

Re: Thank users for their posts!

I really like that "thank you" feature, thank you very much for activating it, Mr.Mouse! :) Just a small improvement I want to suggest: On the profile pages, it says "times:" and "{ THANKED }:". It would be great if you could rename it into something more meaningful, li...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Bucket file format As I wrote earlier, I already have analysed files which are similar to the files in the bucket files, so I will just post what I have. I hope the format did not change too much since I analysed them. :( Thank you very much for your bucket explorer, mvanderw! It is helping me a lo...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

Unknown string list file specification There's another new file format contained in localized assets like swtor_de-de_global_1.tor, with the hashes 51378F9D_96EEED14D7CD0574.txt or CB7EAB01_96EEED14D7CD0574.txt, depending on the version of the beta files. This file contains a list of strings for th...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic Beta Audio Files

Some of the compiled XML files in the bucket files reference sounds to be played during a dialogue: Play SFX: Play_explosionoffscreen_normal_oneoff_01 Play SFX: Play_cine_custom_stolenship_takeoff And also some of the area files (_everywhere_.dat) contain the name of the background music: .rgnCharac...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic Beta Audio Files

You're right, the filenames are stored somewhere in some XML files from the TOR archives. The problem is that these files are spread all over the archives (eg. every dialogue file references its sound file) and therefore it is not that easy to automatically get all file names. To import the file nam...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic Beta Audio Files

The TOR archives themselves do not store the file names but only their hashes. easyMYP has some of the file names stored and can therefore recognize many file names, but not all. As an example, here are some file names of audio files: /resources/bnk/streamed/sfx/music_action_highintensity_bountyhunt...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic Beta Audio Files

Great job, hcs! Thank you very much for fixing ww2ogg! :) In the newest version of Wwise, the audio files now have the extension .wem and not .wav, so I used the following lines for a batch file. And I had to use %%f instead of %f for it to work, but I am not an expert with DOS commands so I do not ...

Re: Star Wars - The Old Republic - Beta

I looked into the release notes for Wwise and found out that Wwise has changed the file extension of the audio files, that's why they are now called .wem: 2.1 All Streamed and Converted Files Have a New File Extension (WEM) All streamed and converted files now have the .wem file extension (Wwise Enc...
