Starfield .ba2 Files Tool?

Post by Franco »

Hello, is there a tool to unpack the archive file to localize Starfield?

I think the language file is here.

You can extract the basic files from that archive with this QuickBMS script. The extracted files are archives with a simple file table of file IDs and offsets to each string.
ba2.zip
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Thank you very much, my friend. How can we open the .gfx file for the font?

I wrote a C# project to extract and repack ba2 files
program:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/3sda9gau ... 2.rar/file
Note: Put the Starfield - Localization.ba2 file in the folder where you extracted the program. extract extracts files, repack packs back


but I cannot open or extract the following files
starfield_en.dlstrings
starfield_en.ilstrings
starfield_en.strings
Files:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/z10m4akc ... n.zip/file

How can I extract/repackage these files. I want to localize this game.
