Dark Blood (ppk files)

[SuperSecret]

thought today i would take another crack at trying to learn quickbms by myself, but ended up getting stuck once more, the data in this file is fairly simple, but i couldn't find the filename lenght in the hex code, it is also written in unicode and listed 2 times, anyways here's what i got so far



RED: Header Size
BLUE: Number of Files
GREEN: Compressed Data
YELLOW: Not sure what these 2 are, there are 2 file paths and neither of them or counted together (or diveded by 2 (cuz of unicode)) counted towards any hex char listed, so i didn't see anywhere where the filename/path lenght was listed in hex

would really appreciate it if any1 could help out me with this bms script, would save me alot of time :}

...unable to attach file, get it here:

the script for quickbms is the following:

Code: Select all

#idstring "P\0P\0K\0\0" # so works also with other games/files
goto 0x218
get HEAD_SIZE long
savepos BASE_OFF
math BASE_OFF += HEAD_SIZE
get FILES long
get DUMMY long
get DUMMY byte
get DUMMY short
get DUMMY long
for i = 0 < FILES
    callfunction GET_UGLYSTRING 1
    set NAME string TMPNAME
    callfunction GET_UGLYSTRING 1
    get CRC long
    get ZSIZE long
    get SIZE long
    get OFFSET long
    get DUMMY byte
    if DUMMY != 1
        print "DUMMY != 1: contact me"
        cleanexit
    endif
    math OFFSET += BASE_OFF
    log NAME OFFSET SIZE
next i

startfunction GET_UGLYSTRING
    math NAMESZ = 0
    math j = 0
    do
        get T byte
        math TMP = T
        math TMP &= 0x7f
        math TMP2 = j
        math TMP2 *= 7
        math TMP <<= TMP2
        math NAMESZ += TMP
        math j += 1
    while T <= 0x7f
    getdstring TMPNAME NAMESZ
    set TMPNAME unicode TMPNAME
endfunction

I guess that there are also compressed files but the archive you provided didn't contain them so it could not extract some files well so I have added that "contact me" message so that you can upload the archives with that particular byte set and I will verify them immediately

no, none of the files are actually compressed, that is there are a few files that use compression, but they have their own header, either way, it's not a problem

anyways, thanks alot for the script, getting the file paths seems to be alot more complex than i anticipated hehe. tested the script on all the packed files and didn't get any errors, so working perfectly

script updated to version 0.1.1 which supports the J files which are compressed.

in short this compression is not part of the archive format but its specific for these files so I have made an on-the-fly decompression.

note that I will upload the new script within some minutes so if you don't see "(script 0.1.1)" in it wait more.

Works great
