The Witcher 2

[Rick]

I'm working on a viewer/editor for W2RC files.

[kimono]

Your work is much appreciated Rick, thanks for all this. Psientist I had made a thread in another section about the texture format although chorrax replied saying they were infact in the dds format and need a header added, unfortunately I'm not sure of what he means. Either way thanks again for the hard work lads

here is a converter
use the xbm to dds converter like this
c:\quickbms\quickbms.exe -F "*.xbm" c:\xbm.bms c:\xbm_folder c:\extracted

Code: Select all

set MEMORY_FILE binary "\x44\x44\x53\x20\x7C\x00\x00\x00\x07\x10\x0A\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x20\x00\x00\x00\x05\x00\x00\x00\x44\x58\x54\x31\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x08\x10\x40\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"

yer a regular saint chrrox, many thanks!

I cannot seem to find the 64 bit version of quickbms?

Neither google, nor the forums search helps me.. (I may be beyond help though)

Using the standard V of quickbms I get
"Error: the variable index is invalid, there is an error in this tool"

win 7 64 bit

EDIT: You may all stop panicing now. Calm down. I found the 64Bit version. Feel free to have a non-alcoholic beverage on me.

When using a legit cdkey, it doesn't work with extracting the .dlc. I'm a 100% sure that the key was right, can you give an example of the command line stuff with the cdkey so I know I did it right? Thanks.

use the xbm to dds converter like this
c:\quickbms\quickbms.exe -F "*.xbm" c:\xbm.bms c:\xbm_folder c:\extracted

Hey, thanks a lot for that! But is there a way to do the opposite? Otherwise there's little use since we can't convert our DDS files back to XBM for the game to use them.

[hhrhhr]

here is a converter...

this is not a valid script, he's wrong on some textures (\environment_levels\detailmaps\* for example), and another is wrong with the size.
there is corrected script (make nomips DDS textures):

Code: Select all

set MEMORY_FILE binary "\x44\x44\x53\x20\x7C\x00\x00\x00\x07\x10\x0A\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x20\x00\x00\x00\x05\x00\x00\x00\x44\x58\x54\x31\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x08\x10\x40\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00"

The old script ended up turning some images like this:

I'll try your script hhrhhr, many thanks!

[oveja]

How do *.w2strings the decryption?
The file header("CR2Ws") is different.

[chrrox]

I dint really test it much lol.
people just kept bugging me alot for one.
it was a few character textures that had errors all it took was changing txt 1 to 5.

Someone managed to extract the texts of the game? I'm trying to translate into Portuguese

[hhrhhr]

tools for xbm->tga and tga->xbm converting: witcher2_texture_converter.zip (thx chrrox for initial edition :)

usage: put quickbms.exe with unpacked files.

xbm2dds.cmd path_to_xbm
it make backup of original .xbm and produce 2 files:
filename_DXT(1,5).bin - some binary info need for export
filename_DXT(1,5).tga - your texture

when texture edited you can use next script: dds2xbm.cmd path_to_tga, it make new .xbm.
don't convert .tga files without _DXT1 or _DXT5 suffix.

example:
..

p.s.
nvcompress.exe and nvdecompress.exe take from GPU Accelerated Texture Compression x64 by NVidia, maybe they are not working on 32-bit system.

You hava a pack/unpack dzip files?? Because i want to translate to brazilian portugese
