Archlord Game File Format

[Rimbros]

Well i found this game and i see have lot of good stuff to see, this its the .data files of the animations, texture and meshes files, first need unpack this data files then make a importer or exporter of the model.

[jin76]

yes this game is definitely worth looking into and is one my fav till this day

[Rimbros]

Yep but its not easy unpack the .Dat format, i see this its very encrypted.

[chrrox]

I found a tool to decrypt the index file after that the extractor is easy.

[Nazaroff]

One man also can extract .DAT files - http://www.elitepvpers.com/forum/archlo ... hread.html

[chrrox]

quickbms script to extract these.
make sure you use the ini decryptor first.

Code: Select all

#quickbms script
#Archlord PC
#from chrrox

open FDSE Data.Dat 0
open FDSE Reference.Dat 1


get files long 1
get foldersz long 1
get folder string 1
string folder + \
for i = 0 < files
    set name folder
    get NAMESIZE long 1
    getdstring name1 NAMESIZE 1
    string name + name1
    get offset long 1
    get size long 1
        log name offset size
next i

Amazing advance in only something Hours chroxxx, thanks man.

[chrrox]

I am working on the model format its not to hard the structure is just a little weird once i get that a converter will not be hard.

[chrrox]

Texture Converter only use on unencrypted textures.

[jin76]

[Rimbros]

i take the time of chrox to develop this script for this game and i think its a record, 4 days, incredible, but also i have a question this code to decrypt the textures, how to use this?ç
i need save this like a .exe file and drag the textures to the .exe?

goto 0x80
set MEMORY_FILE binary "\x44\x44\x53\x20\x7C\x00\x00\x00\x07\x10\x0A\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x00\x04\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"
