Far Cry Instincts Predator (*.DAT *.FAT)

Post by Devmode »

Hello

Im want to extracting DAT archives from Far Cry Instincts Predator game.

Far Cry Instincts Predator on X360 it is improved version of Far Cry instincts and Evolutions games from original xbox console.
Archives of FCI & Evolution, and also Far Cry Vengeance, can be extracted with GameExtractor tool or this BMS script. And This script no correctly work with FCI Predator, because structure of archives have some differences. Or maybe is have compression, i don't know, i not expert unfortunetly.

So, maybe someone can make script with support of this changed archives?


Thanks in advance for any responses.

This attach with sample files.

This is the reference topic for Far Cry:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=378

So you should try the gib.me tools and/or my script but my last post seems to indicate that new games can't be decompressed.

No, all of this will not work, because Far Cry Instincts Predator based on modified Cryengine 1, not Dunia Engine. FCIP is older game, is 2006 year.
That script, on what i give link in first post, is extracting the FCIP archives while not exept incomplete input in the ending of file. Exported files is wrong, and have bigger sizes. So, i hope, maybe for someone is possible sort out in changes, and modify that script for support FCIP archives.
