The House Of The Dead: Overkill: Extended Cut (PS3) *.ps3 (blitz_games.bms not working)

Post by Game Ripper »

Hi guys, I've just run into some trouble trying to unpack archives with streamed sounds from a game that might be unofficially called "House Of The Dead 5": whenever I use the BMS I mentioned QuickBMS.exe extracts some files then stops with an incomplete file error & total size of unpacked content is way smaller than size of a given archive (with *.ps3 extension).
So far I attempted to extract 4 such files but there're many more.

You can find example files here, good luck with them and thanks in advance!
Regards, Game Ripper.

PS. I almost forgot to mention that I use this but with lines #55-58 removed since this is what another ripper suggested.

Hi, thanks but it seems that only older variant is available (it's even stated that it's script 0.1.2 in a comment).

I'm also wondering if platform detection is implemented too... I mean am I going to have to delete a few lines once again to make newer version work with PS3 files?

All the best!

Sorry to be a bother but when & where may I expect script 0.1.3 to be posted? I can't wait to start testing it on my game!
Bye!

That's your cache because the version online is 0.1.3:

Code: Select all

# Blitz Games (script 0.1.3)

OK, I got ver. 0.1.3 but there's still an incomplete file error while unpacking every bigfile & result is 233 MB of content extracted out of 1,34 GB worth of original archives... It's true for 4 samples I posted + 11 additional PS3 archives.

Good day guys, is there anyone willing to take a look at these bigfiles? If you're willing to help me but need more example files just tell me!

This is some code that should work on most (all?) archives from the game.
