Resident Evil 5 PS3 .arc won't extract.

[Gh0stBlade]

Okay, apparently someone named Chrrox made a Resident Evil 5 extractor for the PS3 version. The problem I'm having is that it will not extract my Ps3 .arc files. I think it's because it doesn't have an "SFH" header. Can someone take a look at this?

Thanks.

Hello friends anyone could see it?

as i have seen the sfh header mark files that are disc optimised (aligned to 130xxx) bytes blocks to get better disc access, to extract those files you need first to remove the sfh header + a 16 byte long block every 130xxx bytes to get the original file that can then be extracted using chroxx bms script

Thanks friend,

let's hope the advances in tools.

The endianess is different, that's why evin's tool doesn work.

And because the DMC4 msg2 is not equal with RE5 msg2. Something changed except the characters.

But I know, that someone made a RE5 compatible msg2 tool for pc.

I did one for my team. LOL. I'm doing some changes on it to support the PS3 msg files.

For now i've stopped the work on the msg2 coz i found a weird file inside this MsgResource_e.arc

The unpacker i posted unpacks all files OK but not the mes_stage1_e.MSG2, its weird, inside the msg2 it says that the file should have a size of 149768bytes, but it only decompresses 116763bytes, if anyone discovers somethin please tell me, rigth now is 3:15AM in my country and i really need to sleep. LOL

I talked about the GV RE5 msg2 tool. (You know the team)
You mean 3:15AM? Because people sleep at night, not at afternoon.
