Hi,

I am a fan of Sega's Yakuza games. Unfortunately, Ryu Ga Gotoku 5 is not translated. I would like, if possible, start a translation project over internet. Consequently, I have to decompress every packed files.

So, I decided to write a GUI tool, using C++, that handle decompression and "compression" (importation).
I started to work on and I discovered that a "parc" script was made for quickbms (thanks to luigi), but for learning purpose, I chose to continue the work done so far.

Here is the things done (*.par):
-the offset of the number of repertories is known.
-the offset of the number of files is known.
-the offsets of the name of files or repertories have been retrieved.
-the offsets of every files in archive have been retrieved.
-the offset of compressed size of every files is known.
-the offset of uncompressed size of every files is known.

Next, I moved to the offset of the first compressed file in the archives where I am stuck. I searched for LZSS compression on internet but I did not find anything relevant.

Here is an extract of one of the archives : This is a text file which list the 7 textures of the archive. The data begin to be garbled at the end of the 4th line (After 9073). A byte is added every 7 or 8 bytes before 9073 (00). There must be an operation to do on 90 (end of line 4) in order to be redirected to an offset that correspond to the correct datas because this value does not appear in the decompressed file.

I am a newcomers in the world of Data's compression/encryption. As a result, I really have poor knowledge about that .
Can someone help me to uncompress this thing please ?

thanks in advance.

Edit : here is the full file with a text file containing information about several offset. The text file has been written with notepad. It may be unreadable with notepad (line moved).

And you simply can extract it using exciting script and just rebuild without compression, just in case.

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

Yes, I know but I already started to code. All the boring stuff has been done (get every infos from files contained in the archive).
The only thing to do known is to find a way to decompress files. Once done, it will be easiest to repack (I hope ).

Do you know what the "unsigned char* out" argument of the function is symbolizing ? (It is from the unyakuza.h file provided with quickbms).

Thanks

Keep up the good work

Isn't it just a pointer to the output buffer?

Hi,

With the help of the work done by luigi auriemma I have been able to decompress datas. Now, I just need to code a recompression tool.

thanks for your help !!

It looked like earlier they said you don't need to re-compress the data to get it working (just need to have it it one constant file), just what I read.

Hi,

I am still on it. The decompression algorithm has been fully integrated to the GUI app. The compression algorithm is still in development an will allow to compress any files using an LZSS algorithm.

Here is an overview : I need to figure out to what the last bytes (5067 A02D, 4DF1 767F, ...) of these enumerations mean. Does anyone have an idea please? thanks.

thanks.

I think the last bytes is the checksum of filename in the parc pack,you don`t need to calculate them.
