NFS Shift .BML and .BM* files
Hello, NFS Shift has lots of .BML and other .BMx, they looks like a binary version (compiled) of plain XML files. I have attached 2 of them inside the RAR archive. Can you, reverse engineering experts, take a look at them and give us the file structure so we can modify those files? Changes made to t...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
Indeed, though apparently you cannot mod the races/maps as they will not repack. So for so things unpacking everything is the only way... unless someone knows how to use the partial pack argument and it does what it sounds like? I also cannot get IGPHASEACTIVATE.bff to repack, notsure if thats a bu...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
Worked. I edited DDS and repacked using gui and the game worked. Used DXTbmp. Thanks Japamd really big improvement over small time. You are amazing. :) So lets start make skins and edit the textures. Big thanks to Japamd again. I'm glad it's working for you. As redilS pointed out, it's a lot easier...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
Ooops, my fault
Re-uploaded, should work now.
Both files in rar archive (BFF.dll and BffRepacker.exe) must be on same folder.

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
Hi guys, good news, I just did (I guess :D) There's a DDS texture changed (where it reads Adrenaline) for the Mazda MX5. http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/7918/shift2009092713061743tn.th.jpg http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/6876/shift2009092713060594tn.th.jpg http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/4716/shi...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
I'm not sure if it's a repacker problem or some kind of protection against file modification, or maybe the game it's just expecting compressed files, albeit file's compression flag set to uncompressed in infotable. I did successfully repacked the archive using the original/compressed files, maybe I ...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
No.. the problem is there even unpacking original BFF file and repacking the extracted files with the repack program into my_Mazda_MX5.bff. Then copy the newly build file in to the corresponding folder of the game rename the original file to *.old and then rename the new file to the Mazda_MX5.bff (...

Re: NfS Shift .BFF files
Added files will not be considered because the script will rely on the original BFF nametable and repack only the files contained there, deleted ones will throw an error instead. Sqwall, I tried repacking the same file and got the same error, the pointed BFF uses a 4 letters extension (bfont) and th...
