"Endless Ocean" (not Blue World) unable to be extracted using the "endless_ocean.bms" script

Post by DempseyofEmerald »

Like the title says. I've been able to extract Endless Ocean: Blue World's resources from its GAME.DAT file without any problems, but for some reason I can't extract the first Endless Ocean game's resources using the same script, even if the website said it should work for both. Here is the exact error message I got:

Hopefully someone can fix this whenever possible! Thanks!

You can try to change header id in script from \x00ARK to *ARK but I'm not sure if this solves the problem completely.

PS: upload files before ask.

Thanks missingno74 for uploading the files! Yeah I didn't realize I needed to send them. I never used this website before.

It's the format used in arika.bms which is experimental.
That script doesn't work with this format because there is something different and in any case the decrypted data has some fields that don't look correct.
That's the max I can do.
