Textures of Beta Diablo 3, ".tex" files converter needed :)

Post by Tabris »

Hi guys,

here is some samples of Diablo 3 textures files.

Could someone take a look and find a way to convert this .tex (textures files) into dds or tga files ?

Thanks.

open file via F3 in total commander and you will see that its not normal texture but just container. Second half of file looks like it contains small data streams but i didnt found what format it is or how it is xored bcause im short of time

SirLoon, I also can not find that kind of format. The only thing that I realized that some blocks are repeated at intervals of 48 characters. I understand that in this container are the TGA data files and maybe even some information. Perhaps in archives.

i already tryed tga files and it doesnt works. first block is kinda weird it looks to be identical to headers of next blocks

this is Diablo III's new format, the first 40 byte ("DEADBEEF" header) is just a generic header,
after that comes data that is unique to every filetype, but normaly an offset table follows
the game uses file ext to find out how to read the file,

tex files are container,
a simple bms script to extract raw data: (still not readable, but better to analys)

Code: Select all

goto 0x34
get numFiles long

for x = 0 to numFiles
get Offset long
get Size long

math Offset += 16

set Name x
string Name += ".tex"

log Name Offset Size

next x

The files you're talking about, could that be these list files ?

you extracted one capsule but you need extract rest. find offset 0x12368 and its start of header of some file which looks xored, there are many of them

nope, that's filelists, i'm not talking about the mpq's, every file inside the D3 MPQ's has the DEADBEEF header.

there is no xored part ? your offset 0x12368 points directly into the raw textures

*.tex files are:
- 0xDEADBEEF header
- offset table (if more then 1 file, then every other file is a mip-map)
- original file names (before converting to *.tex) & some unknown data
- raw textures

the script extracts only the raw image (RGB8888), this is already viewable with texturefinder,
we need to find out what the unknown data is to extract real images.

i just don't really care about textures to do that, i'm more for 3D Models ^^
