The head.bin and tail.bin

Thanks in advance!

can you upload the whole file this is my best guess at it.

Code: Select all

idstring "BASPACK‘"
get TABLEOFFSET long
get FILES short
goto TABLEOFFSET
for i = 1 < FILES
filexor ""
get OFFSET long
get SIZE long
getdstring NAME 0xFF
filexor "0x37"
clog NAME OFFSET SIZE
next i

How to repack extracted BASPACK?

Can anyone help with writing tool for that? By on script it's shoudn't be hard.
My great respect and appreciation for them, who research game files! Special thanks to: aluigi, bacter, DerPlaya, Rick, Turfster, twig, Zench. Sorry if someone is missing in my list, I'll update when I'll notice it again

Here's a very simple PAK maker/extractor.
And I have an idea to improve it, so the next step will be the "Update" function, so how to replace only a few files, without extracting everything, and rebuilding again
that 600 megabytes sized huge PAK file. (Just like in my BIN updater for the "Darkness Within 2")

Updated version!
Now it works like my .VST util: You can use the "Replace" function, if you want to replace only one file in the archive!

This is the commandline version of the Update (Replace) function.

BASPACK - Drawn: The Painted Tower - Archive

Post by ubrax »

Used the BASPACK Unpacker/Packer [Drawn-Dark_Flight_PAK_unpacker_1.0.zip by XpoZed] (and command line version by bacter) on various BASPACK archives. Never experienced any problems:
1. BASPACK - Drawn: The Painted Tower - Archive et.al.
2. BASPACK - Travelogue 360 (both Rome and London).

BASPACK - Travelogue 360 Paris doesn't work.

The attached BASPACK file seems to predate the BASPACK evolutionary line and fails to open using the unpacker.

Archive Analysis file: http://ubrax.com/bms/data.pak.zip

I will appreciate any help I may receive to unpack this archive.

Regards, and thanx!
