Re: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (*.cache*.bundle)
Not a simple XOR. They are probably using a hash/key. Anyone around that is able to make an unpacker/repacker for this?hhrhhr wrote:I think that the files are very simple, but the contents is just xor-ed. look at any br.w3strings, inside there is almost clean text (UTF16 with some html tags).stalja wrote:String files came with the release of the game. Anyone has any info on how to approach the new w3strings format?

"unpacker" is quite simple, but the decoder - not yet. and yes, strings are not just xored.

Captured some textures and found that plant life textures look very interesting. I wonder what purpose all that smudging around the texture serves. Any idea?

Re: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (*.cache*.bundle)
Nothing particular. Just how many artists do textures for small, detailed meshes like hair or, in this case, foliage. An alpha channel will hide the excess (the "smudges").NuclearTester wrote:Captured some textures and found that plant life textures look very interesting.

Re: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (*.cache*.bundle)
No, this doesn't look accidental and it's obvious to me that the process serves some purpose. So my question still stands why textures for small detailed meshes with transparency are done this way.ssringo wrote:Nothing particular.

Re: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (*.cache*.bundle)
Most of the time we make a selection of the alpha channel (transparency) and then blur the edges in a second layer. This methods prevents from small artifacts on the edges.
My question is : which kind of image do you get ? (.dds/.tif/.tga/...) and can you repack them in the archive ?

Re: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (*.cache*.bundle)
Thanks for explanation. That makes sense. Unfortunately, I don't know how to unpack/repack. It's possible to get any texture/object/shader with this handy tool: http://developer.amd.com/tools-and-sdks ... erfstudio/
