just an idea: maybe they use "human readable" filenames just for files used by lua scripts/interface/xml and "internal names/indexes" for other files?

have you found anything?

I'm still trying to "link" mnf data and zosft data, so far no luck :/

i.e.

ZOSFT DATA: 04 00 00 00 69 00 00 00 E3 7E 19 4F 8E 72 19 6B
ZOSFT TEXT: /esoui/art/achievements/achievements_points_05.dds

MNF: 32896,6363,BBC31573,3310,1,0,0

I had a tough day so could you explain this?

btw : 3 ZOSFT ->

Code: Select all

/filetable.dat
/animsfiletable.dat
/internalfiletable.dat

same problem - not enough records :( I've found another ZOSFT file inside eso0002, offset 1394821 (my eso0002 size is 38006249) 5657125,2755862,2041805319,1394821,1,2,0 but it has 50k records only and there are 200k+ files :/ but maybe files without names are just obsolete junk? :) it's beta but so ...

I think that I have found "something" :) it's hidden inside files with ZOSFT header inside that file you will find few zlib compressed blocks and then block of null-separated strings, i.e. /esoui/app/app.txt /esoui/app/loadingscreen/loadingscreen.lua /esoui/app/loadingscreen/loadingscreen.xml /esoui...

thanks for file number hint - I was blind :-) 0x1 - szFlag (0 - Not Compressed, 1 - Compressed, 2 - Unknown (Compressed and Encrypted maybe)) I haven't tested it yet but imo 2 = compressed by snappy - https://code.google.com/p/snappy/ I'm sure they use it becouse by using brute force attempt I was a...

what's the status of your research? :-) I did some research myself and so far I've found offsets, sizes of packed and sizes of unpacked data blocks inside game0000.dat but still can't find filenames & directory structure :( I suppose it should be something like EsoUI/Art/Achievements/achievements_po...
