The language file of the game and extracted from the large file.A friend told me to use it "lzham_x86D.dll", but I don't know how to do it. :roll:

Can you pm me?

You need to write tool to use dll.
Here you have repo
https://github.com/richgel999/lzham_codec
Main CMake (linux) or lzham.sln (Windows) should compile lzhamtest executable that may work with your file, if you have luck.

Here is also older version to check

What are the best ways/guidelines to post?
Be clear and synthetic, aka "go to the point".
A long post will be read by few people, others will give up because annoyed to read lot of useless text.
If you want to post information about a news or a tool, maybe add:

the subject of the information (name of the tool and target game)
an abstract (files extractor or Steam voip vulnerabilities)
the verbose or less verbose information with details

Is it possible to have the name of the game and the original names of these 2 files?

@Delutto
I fully agree, this topic is irritating.

And I doubt the extensions are just vpk (1_dir.vpk and 1.vpk???) since there is an index and data file, I simply wanted to know the original filenames of both the files you provided.

That program opens the files, but when I try to pack in the game stays on the black screen. Can you write a Quickbms script?

How if I don't even know the names of the files you uploaded?

Additionally I have the impression that the files you uploaded are not related to this game.

These were the file names, and I changed them to keep them short.

1.vpk to client_frontend.bsp.pak000_000.vpk
1_dir.vpk to englishclient_frontend.bsp.pak000_dir.vpk

This program opens files, please test.

Great, you provided a data file of an archive and the index file or another archive...

Sorry I can't waste my time.
