Agarest 2 PS3 SEC files

[kff]

Hello There

There is a quickbms script on the xentax site to extract Agarest 2 PC BRA files, and it works fine (i say it because i didn't see it listed on Luigi's site).

However i'd like to extract the PS3 archives, which are in a different format (SEC). I have no idea how to extract them. The header starts with "secB", in case somebody already saw them.

The goal is to extract the uncensored art from the PS3 US version and import them into the PC version, there is even a dlc that is censored which i'd like to import..

Any help appreciated!

I attached 2 samples

Also here is the listing of the same archives in the PC version:

I'm not sure if the content should be exactly the same but i guess it should be pretty similar..

Hello,

I'm trying to use this script to extract the files from the PS3 version of Agarest 2, but it doesn't work. I'm using the Aksys version and probably the OP used the Japanese version or I'm not sure why both are different . This error comes from the file AG10_EVENT.sec, and no file seems to accept this version of the script. Even tried the two ones that the OP added (his files work fine with the script but my files don't).

Code: Select all

  offset   filesize   filename
--------------------------------------

- signature of 4 bytes at offset 0x00000000 doesn't match the one
  expected by the script:

  this one: "��1"
  ed 8b 31 06                                       ..1.

  expected: "secB"
  73 65 63 42                                       secB

- 0 files found in 0 seconds
  coverage file 0     0%   4          241797120

Press ENTER or close the window to quit

Did I do something wrong? (just copied the files from the BD to somewhere else in my PC and tried to extract the files using quickBMS).

P.S.: sorry for reviving this thread, but I think it is a bit relevant to the discussion .
