Double Fine Productions games

[aluigi]

In my collection I had two scripts covering the games Stacking and Brutal Legend.
Both these games are developed by Double Fine Productions and would be nice to have one script to open most of these games.
So I updated the following script to make it at least compatible with the game Massive Chalice:

I have many doubts about the other games because the format is very "dynamic" and it was ever slightly different for these 3 games.

Hi!
Day of the Tentacle Remastered is from this company
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Fine_Productions

And the bms is not working with that, here is the 1st 1mb

Can you make it to work with it? thanks!

Tentacle uses completely different engine than Stacking etc.
Use BMS script for Monkey Island 2 Special Edition.

[Savage]

Thanks MerlinSVK, it worked fine

Do you have samples from this and/or other games of Double Fine for Xbox?
There is a problem recognizing what is the compression algorithm to use.

No, but its zlib compression, precomp works with that and offzip too, the example data is from PC version

[aluigi]

Yeah I know but I need to find a way to recognize the archives that use xmemdecompress, I found them in the past but I no longer have samples. Anyone has samples from other xbox games of the same developers?

[aluigi]

For example Brutal Legend for xbox.

[Savage]

For example Brutal Legend for xbox.

As "requested" here is some files from Brutal Legend for xbox360

http://www21.zippyshare.com/v/WsinuuCm/file.html (1,26Mb's)

If you need more files just say it i hope it helps

[aluigi]

Eh unfortunately there is no data with xmemdecompress there.
Anyway if and when we will encounter one of these archives compressed with xmemdecompress (you will get a compression error) I will check them
Script 0.2.3

[Savage]

I can upload all the files (xbox 360) if you want, it's only 1,07 Gb's

[Savage]

With the script 0.2.3 it worked with 00Startup.~h i will check all the files

[Savage]

to delete

[aluigi]

RgB_Stuff != RgS_Stuff
quickbms is perfectly right

[Savage]

Shit! xDDD delete the last two posts.

[Savage]

Okay here we go..

Example from PC version:
Rg_EnvMtrl_ComputerCore.~p 262Mb's

21.130 Rg_EnvMtrl_ComputerCore.~h
275.054.592 Rg_EnvMtrl_ComputerCore.~p

Code: Select all

quickbms.exe stacking2.bms Rg_EnvMtrl_ComputerCore.~h unpacked

239 files and only 17.0 Mb's

Using precomp

New size: 703300292 instead of 275054592
Recompressed streams: 241/514
zLib streams (intense mode): 241/514

[aluigi]

Do you mean that quickbms extracted only 17 Mb from an archive of 270 Mb?

[Savage]

Exactly, but it happens in a lot of files, not only in this one

[aluigi]

I understand and the problem is just with the work-arounds for calculating zsize and size (long story).
Honestly I don't think there is something I can fix because doesn't exist a real "format", different versions and different games use different ways to store OFFSET, ZSIZE and SIZE and use different compression algorithms (zlib vs xmem).
It's really a pain.

Now while testing my old samples I found that version 2 doesn't want ZSIZE >> 1 so I have just removed it (even if it was there for a reason).
Your files are version 6 and I have found a way that now seems to work.

The current version of the script is 0.2.4 and seems to work correctly with the samples I have but I don't think I'm going to spend other time on this weird format.
