I surely will NOT. Neither "loot" nor look.
The loader (*.exe, downloader Morstar?) from that page is (or contains or loads) a PUP

@shakotay2, mate you have click on wrong download link that's why it gave you an exe file to download instead of an 7z file.

BTW thanks @Michaelss for the bms link !

edit: bms script seems to work only with .bundle files

any way out for .cache files ?

There are dozens of file hosters that do not.
Why not use them?

speaking of which?
*.w2strings or *.sqlite not contained in blob.bundle.

cutscenes not to be loaded into W2 cutscenes editor:
Version 162 is not supported. Highest supported version is 115.
Failed to load '..\cs001_little_ciri_intro\cs001_little_ciri_intro.w2cutscene'.

No usable w2mesh files found.

This is what I could retrieve:

just loading a DXT1 without a header (it was an xbm texture file).

AFAICS it does not with the files I tested (w2mesh, w2cutscene, w2scene).
("Warning Version 162 is not supported.")

(When faking them from version 0xA2 to version 0x59 or 0x73 the REDkit crashed to desktop.)

One more noob question :-) - so I have to strip xbm header and add dds one? Am I right or wrong?

looks like. Dunno why you posted the hex data since it should be clear from the file extension which is *.xbm for TheWitcher2 textures and for the ones from W3 in the blob.bundle, too.

I tried 3 different scripts to convert xbm (found inside W3 blob.bundle) -> dds but none of them work for me :(
Could you share your script/solution/more details shakotay2?
Thanks in advance :-)

My solution is a modified DDSWithoutD3DX11.exe (D3D SDK) but it can't add headers atm (button Sxxx without function) so it won't help you.

Here's a modified xbm file from the blob.bundle:
cave_entrance_proxy_d.zip

Concerning XBM - from what I'm seeing it consists of 5 parts: Header, variable list, data1, data2, texture.


Edit: I am apparently wrong ...

I was looking at \environment\architecture\human\common\basement\textures\arc_basement01.xbm and the following seemed to make sense

Header offset 58 holds the address of data2 block in little endian. Data2 block is x bytes long. Second to last 4 bytes (meaning - offset (len(data2)-8) of data2 block) holds the length of texture data. I am guessing the last data is DDS texture without header.

shakotay2 discovered a texture which has the same data structure with data2 block being of different size than the one I was looking at. I am yet to determine how length of data2 is calculated (based on the variable list maybe?)

this "data2" block seems to contain a bunch of string table indices which are used to define/group variables/datatypes maybe like this:
width Uint32 (textureGroup?)
height Uint32 (textureGroup?)

TCM_DXTNoAlpha textureGroup
CName ETextureCompression

WorldDiffuse residentMipIndex Uint8
textureCacheKey Uint32 (textureGroup?)

edit: ok, that's not fully correct. It should be something like "textureGroup: WorldDiffuse" for example

In fact it should give some kind of struct type for CBitmapTexture:
struct-CBitmapTexture.JPG
W2 xbm - although it's a Z:\W3_Assets folder (from march 2013)
