I have updated my mas.bms script to support also the mas archives of the Simraceway game (a collection of mods):
http://aluigi.org/papers/bms/mas.bms
remember that the script works with ANY mas archive of the games based on the ISI gmotor engine like ACTC, rFactor, ARCA, BMW M3, Sports Cart GT, NASCAR SimRacing/Thunder, F1 Challenge and so on.
and yes, it works correctly and doesn't have the bugs of the ISI public tools.
Important information: this site is currently scheduled to go offline indefinitely by end of the year.

Re: Simraceway MAS
Thank you for this script aluigi!
I think the key may have changed in v28.71 build 322 - latest build as of today.
First I used simraceway.bms to decrypt some MAS files (they had SRW00002 header). Then I tried to extract the resulting files with mas.bms, but I get errors:or
Using quickbms 0.5.13
Could you please look into this? I can send you any files you may need.
Thanks!

------------------------------
- SCRIPT's MESSAGE:
set MAS_TYPE 2
Error: incomplete input file number 0, can't read 1298055708 bytes.
anyway don't worry, it's possible that the BMS script has been written
to exit in this way if it's reached the end of the archive so check it
or contact its author or verify that all the files have been extracted
Code: Select all
Error: the requested amount of bytes to allocate is negative (-1720700288)
Could you please look into this? I can send you any files you may need.
Thanks!

Re: Simraceway MAS
give me the name of one of these MAS, I have tried with evox.mas and everything worked correctly.
I'm using the latest simraceway.bms released some days ago: 0.2

Re: Simraceway MAS
I re-downloaded everything, game included, on my home computer and it seems to work now.
No idea what went wrong before
Sorry to bother you, thanks again!

Re: Simraceway MAS
This script does not seem to work on the newest version of simraceway files.
Any suggestions?

Re: Simraceway MAS
Simraceway files must be handled in the following way:

Re: Simraceway MAS
OK, so the real time capture of the machine unique key is no longer a required step?

Re: Simraceway MAS
exactly, it's more convenient and easy to download the original files and decrypting them (without unique key).

Re: Simraceway MAS
Excellent. I managed to use this method to decrypt the files already installed by the game.aluigi wrote:exactly, it's more convenient and easy to download the original files and decrypting them (without unique key).

Re: Simraceway MAS
Is anyone else having problems unzipping the cars? I have tried many different things, winrar, winzip, downloading from multiple browsers but I still get error messages when I try to extract them.

Re: Simraceway MAS
First you have to decrypt them with aluigi's script: http://aluigi.altervista.org/papers/bms/simraceway.bms

Re: Simraceway MAS
You have to decrypt the zip file downloaded from the web? I.E. - http://cdn.simraceway.com/mods/1933_SRW ... Hotrod.zip I tried and it still will not unzip.
EDIT- Got it, thanks! You cannot save the decrypted zip over the original.

Re: Simraceway MAS
Anyone have any luck extracting the SRW.MAS and SRW_ANT.MAS files? Or any of the MAS files in the vehicle root?

Re: Simraceway MAS
Those files just have common textures like cubemaps, tires textures etc.. So you can use other one for example from shift 2 is what i do on all the conversions.RCFortyFive wrote:Anyone have any luck extracting the SRW.MAS and SRW_ANT.MAS files? Or any of the MAS files in the vehicle root?
