I have made the script but you must specify the full name of the game first.

*EDIT* updated script
Code: Select all
# Age of Wushu (script 0.1.1)
# script for QuickBMS http://quickbms.aluigi.org
idstring "PCK"
get TMP byte
savepos MYOFF
get NAMESZ short
get ZERO long
get FILES long
get HEAD_SIZE long
savepos TMP
math TMP -= MYOFF
math NAMESZ -= TMP
getdstring NAME NAMESZ
for i = 0 < FILES
savepos MYOFF
get NAMESZ short
get OFFSET long
get TYPE long
get SIZE long
get ZSIZE long
getdstring DUMMY 5
get DUMMY long
savepos TMP
math TMP -= MYOFF
math NAMESZ -= TMP
getdstring NAME NAMESZ
clog NAME OFFSET ZSIZE SIZE
next i
the archive contains compressed files so let me know if you receive a compression error with some archives because it's possible that some files may be not compressed (the provided archive contains only compressed files).
for the rest the format is enough simple with a 16bit value that specifies how much long is the information entry.

hi, i already test it with larger file. it shows "error: the requested amount of bytes to allocate is negative (-2)" what is it means?.. the filesize is about 292,224,623 bytes. it has 5146 files inside.
