the magic tool is here:

and the rebuilter too:

eh? why this topic is also here?
I guess you must remove it because it's not related to extraction

aluigi

script for QuickBMS:

Code: Select all

get FILES long
for i = 0 < FILES
    get NAME_CRC long
    get FILENUM long
    get DUMMY long
    get OFFSET long
    get SIZE long
    log "" OFFSET SIZE
next i

@apollo
the generated header is perfect, use a player that support the ms adpcm codec like vlc or mplayer to play the files

aluigi

depends by the algorithm, personally I can't test it because the sample file no longer exists. anyway if only the archived file is encrypted then use: encryption cryptdecrypt "Mw2zd198703k2001231237" log FILENAME OFFSET ZSIZE encryption "" "" instead of the only "l...

I use fsbext with the -a option to dump the files and building their headers but xmaencode.exe isn't able to decode them.
the bad thing of xmaencode is that sometimes it's too much "rigid" in the decoding and so fails.

I couldn't write any wiki or something else. But I'm going to do that this weekend too. perfect. my reaction was caused by the fact that everytime there is no extraction tool for the settlers series and if exists it's a work-around or closed source which means that everytime a new game of the serie...

aluigi

no idea.
the only thing I have been able to see is that loading it as raw pcm big endian is better than little endian (note the pauses between the sounds) but I don't think this helps.

aluigi

remove "endian big" from the script and it's ok

aluigi

they are only compressed dds files:

Code: Select all

get SIZE long
savepos OFFSET
get ZSIZE asize
math ZSIZE -= OFFSET
get NAME basename
string NAME += ".dds"
clog NAME OFFSET ZSIZE SIZE

aluigi

don't know why it crashes, if you can upload the first 70 megabytes of this file I will take it a look

aluigi

when you open the sample file with a hex editor you can see various "SPECIALBIT" strings which are just the key xored with the space char.

aluigi

I can play it perfectly (violins and orchestrial), I use mplayer.

you need to use a player that supports the Microsoft ADPCM codec like mplayer/mencoder/ffmpeg.

aluigi

oh no no, don't worry.
1gb and half is too much for a curiosity :)

anyway do you have the same result with the tool of themachine?
