College Hoops 2k8 - PS3

Post by brentnlane »

Hey there everyone,

I’ve been trying to extract the College Hoops 2k8 PS3 files. They’re 0A, 0B, 0C, 0D, 0E with no extensions. Modern NBA 2k games use the same file structure, but no luck with those tools. All Pro Football 2k8 also has the same structure but no luck using that QuickBMS script either. I know that once they contained .IFF files which will be easily moddable once extracted, but I’m having trouble getting there. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

I think the only way is having that 0A file for analysis.

I suppose it's very big so it's enough to upload only some megabytes of its beginning like 10 Mb or the first file generated by the script http://aluigi.org/bms/filecutter.bms

A breakthrough on this would be huge. I am dying to get to those APF 2k8 textures

If nobody provides any files, nobody will make any script.

That script doesn't work for College Hoops 2k8, the files Fang sent you are for All Pro Football 2k

I sent you an email with the correct files, I can send again if you need me to.

Old thread, I know, but I've been trying to mod this game myself. I successfully used the NHL 2K11 script that was made to unpack the 0A file, and out came a bunch of DAT files. I tried to extract them through 7zip but I got an error. Looked at it in a hex editor and it looked like a bunch of nonsense. I've attached it here in case anyone wants to take a look and see what they can do with it. Thanks!
