thanks, here is Noesis python script to open your aif samples. :D
tex_BulletGirlsPhantasia_PSVita_aif.zip
supports morton swizzled dxt1, dxt3, dxt5
Thanks for releasing the script! Very useful in exploring those lingerie images in the cpk data.

However my concern is that of the converted IQE / NEXS from asf files. It loads no texture at all?
I want to explore character / weapon textures in the game. :D

After the latest JP update SOADec nor the slz script are working anymore. Error screenshot. Sample files if needed, has some aif images and an old version of a model (working) and the new one (not working). Thank you for your wonderful tool.

New encryption. Since this is an online game, keys are probably sent over the network and can be changed over time. So it would require constant finding of the keys. I also think that different files use different keys. Overall not worth the effort.

Technically model and texture tools still work. You are on your own for getting the decrypted files though.

The models from Bullet Girls Phantasia are not coming with UV. Am I the only one with this problem? Or...

Anyway, thanks for the program.

So someone requested me to take a look at this game's asset encryption.
Basically, there are two asset versions, marked by integer after the ADLD header. Decryption of two versions already exists on the first release of the game, so it’s not that the game updated the encryption, but changed from an older algorithm.

I also looked at your tool, and that XOR key guessing is pretty charming.
To properly obtain the key, first calculate the crc32 of the asset path, like “Character/cc0001_b01a.apk”. Note that here is not the standard crc32, the standard crc32 initialize the crc with value 0xFFFFFFFF, this initialize it with string length.
Then here’s the different, in v1 asset, convert crc to hex, and this is the xor key.
In v2 asset, pad this crc with 0 to 32 length, then convert this as hex to binary string, the result is the key for AES128, IV is hex2bin(“09375711857134629684891855841614”)

So if use this proper way to get the key, accurate asset path is needed.

What version are you looking at of the apk could you say what offset the function is at in that version.

jp v2.7.0, 0xC99940

How to find this function in other version:
Find "Framework::CFileLoader::SetDecryptFunction" usage in "CGame::OnInitialize", F5, click on the off_xxx above the function call, function reference is at + 0x14 (6 int below)
There should be a obvious "MOV R2, #0x444C4441" at fourth instruction, this function exists at the first version of the game

Can you show an example of a string and the correct crc and key.
are these the options you used? "32 -1 -1 0 0 1"

Weird, can't figure out the parameter

This is my code, CRCTABLE is from the above apple open source file

Code: Select all

function crc32_mod($str) {
  $remaining = strlen($str);
  $crc = 0;
  if ($remaining) {
    $crc = $remaining;
    /*
    crc32 standard:
    $crc = 0xFFFFFFFF;
    */
    $i = 0;
    do {
      $current_char = ord($str[$i]);
      $remaining--;$i++;
      $crc = CRCTABLE[($current_char ^ $crc) & 0xff] ^ ($crc >> 8);
    } while ($remaining);
  }
  return $crc;
}
Also, I've written an article about this

I have released a new version of SOADec for decrypting/decompressing the latest files. You can find it in the first post. Usage is the same. Credits to esterTion for figuring out the decryption method.

esterTion, akderebur, fantastic job.

The new collaboration character (GGX Sol) has been confirmed, but it has been loaded successfully.
Of course, past models are also loaded properly.

Thanks akderebur and esterTion for your works!
I have a personal request, since no one have interest to extract files from Star Ocean 5, I really want to do. This game use the same file extention of Anamnesis, (.AIF) for textures and (.ASF) for 3D models. They are compressed in somekind of SLZ type but I really don't know.

In the attachments there are a couple a sample files, extracted from the PS4 version of the game.
samples.zip
Is this possible to use the SOADec tool for decompress these files?
