Hello. I would like help to extract this file. It is very similar to the PSP Techu volume.dat

Yes, it is the complete file. This script was made for the Tenchu Shadow Assassins file, but it doesn't work 100% on Samurai ...

Change the line 8 of the script and see if works:

Code: Select all

get FILES long
get FILES long

for:

Code: Select all

get FILES long
get DUMMY long

Oops, Delutto! Follows the error after making the change;

It's so weird.
There is a FLAGS field that if equal than 2 or 4 gives some problems since the SIZE doesn't match the size in the archive.
Indeed it can be smaller or larger than the original size but I don't see a real compression used, the content of these files (whatever flag 2 or 4) has often clear content.
I updated the script for dumping these files as-is using the whole size in the archive.

I noticed when using the new version of this script on Way of the Samurai 2, the script
ends abruptly with an error as well, whereas the old version of the script worked fine. Perhaps the
old version will work with Samurai western.

Here's the old version of the script

Code: Select all

# Hakuoki Shinsengumi Kitan / Way of the Samurai 2
#   maybe other games developed by Idea Factory
# script for QuickBMS http://quickbms.aluigi.org
