Just Cause 4 .arc/tab

Post by OrangeC »

I can make out some stuff in HEX like some FSB5 file headers, but so far seems the rest is compressed.

Uses Oodle lib V7
TAB structure

Code: Select all

//--------------------------------------
//--- 010 Editor v6.0.2 Binary Template
//
// File:avalanche tab
// Author:Lukas Cone
// Revision: Just Cause 4
// Purpose:
//--------------------------------------
SetBackColor( cLtGreen );
struct {
	uint ID;
	ushort version1, version2;
    uint allignment;
	int null;
}Header;

typedef struct {
	int hash;
	int unk;
}HashEntry;

HashEntry unkHash;
int numHashes;
HashEntry hashes[numHashes];

while (FileSize() > FTell())
{
	struct {
		int hash, offset, compressed_size, size;
		short HashEntryID;
		char unk0, unk1;
	}FileEntry;
}

Compressed files are beyond me, they probably use individual compression, depending on file type since I could see strings within compressed script/animation files.

Compressed file layout:

Code: Select all

//--------------------------------------
//--- 010 Editor v6.0.2 Binary Template
//
// File:arc compressed entry
// Author:Lukas Cone
// Revision: Just Cause 4
// Purpose:
//--------------------------------------
SetBackColor( cLtGreen );
struct {
	short ID; // Always 0x8c06
	char unk0, 
		unk1;
	int hash; //crc?
	char headerID[8]; // first 8 bytes from file
}Header;

Ok here is temporary bms script which can unpack some of arc files. QBMS obviously can't handle other oodle compression algo... Filenames are hashed so....
Thanks PredatorCZ for initial struct.

EDiT: Updated with extension support.
EDiT1: Now unpack all files. Those which can't be decompressed are located in "compressed" folder.
