PC archives have both encrypted headers and encrypted files within its data.erik945 wrote:Is it possible to extract PC bhd/bdt files? Rick's tools crash.
Due to the newness of the game and the fact that multiplayer is central to the game, I will not be providing any of my personal research for Dark Souls II publicly (nor will I provide it privately). Cheating was a big problem with the first game, and while there is cheating in Dark Souls II, I am not going to help it get worse for the time being.

Don't ask me about localization tools; if you don't have the resources to develop them yourself you don't need them.

Re: Dark Souls 2 file formats
Understandable, I'd really like to access the game files but I do understand not wanting to make cheating/hacking easier than it already is since the game is very focused on online play, hopefully something can be released later.Rick wrote:PC archives have both encrypted headers and encrypted files within its data.erik945 wrote:Is it possible to extract PC bhd/bdt files?

(I prefer offline mode myself but I've never really liked multiplayer that much.)
Re: Dark Souls 2 file formats
I would really like to access the audio files of Dark Souls 2. Is it possible to extract these from any version of the game? (PC, PS3, X360) Would save me a lot of trouble!

Re: Dark Souls 2 file formats
Bummer. I completely understand and agree on your decision - however, as a person who is looking into Dark Souls files to grab the armors and weapons for other games (namely Skyrim) it' is a shame that I cannot extract the files without using GeDoSaTo and Ninja Ripper.Rick wrote:PC archives have both encrypted headers and encrypted files within its data.

Re: Dark Souls 2 file formats
Hello my friend, I have tried to extract Dark Souls 2 bnd file with your script, but failed. Can teach us how to modify the script so that the script can be applied to Dark Souls 2 , I want to extract to flver file. Thank you for your helpRick wrote:To answer your question,As for formats, mostly the same as . At least the archives, not looked at models.
- Get some sort of way to log your PS3 network activity.
- Start (or unpause) the client download.
- Sniff the URL it grabs for the install package.
- Unpack that package for game data using PS3 package unpacking tools.
