Star Wars Battlefront II Xbox Demo

Post by Teancum »

Files exist inside the executable, dunno if they can be extracted. I think the actual game data starts at address 0x5A000

Download link: http://cloudstor.es/f/In/ (343mb)

I'd like to see how compatible these files are with the final game, and whether I can run changed files external to the demo. Thanks as always!

I have a good and bad news.
The good one is that these files are just resources/sections of the xbe file and I wrote a script on the fly:

The bad news is that I don't understand the format of DEMODAT (data) and DEMOCTL (header), they have no sense.

Bummer. Thanks for trying anyway. I'll take a look at the dumped files just for fun when I get home today.

Not out of the demo. The folks at Gametoast.com are your best shot at getting the model. They can help, but you'll have to do the work.
