ARCANA HEART 3 How to extract text from this tdf file?

Post by yeziirl »

The name of the game is Arcana Heart 3

I can see text with hex editor, but how do I actually extract it from the file?

I figured that there are 114 characters between each FF and 00,02,04,06 and etc. have only zeroes or FF on them

I attached sample to the message and here is the image


Edit:
I figured that in the beginning, after TDF header, there are strange combination
00 0B 00 01
00 30 00 0B
00 01 00 30
00 0B 00 01
00 30 00 0B
00 01 00 30
00 10 00 00
00 04 00 FF
then next starts with FF and text begins

We can see that lines repeat themself

maybe the header is 0x28 long and just search for FF FF 38 00 or "goto 0x28" then "getct TEXT unicode 0xFF" and log the text and repeat? if you goal is just text extraction... at first look can seem to see any data about the contents of the file on the table it got 870 text files size or tables are no there... maybe on another file?

BTW which platform is this? PS3/Vita or PC?

Hello, thanks for answering! This is PC version
You think there are other text files other than that?

I'm not good at writing those scripts, should it look like this?

Code: Select all

endian big
idstring "TDF\x02"
goto 0x28
getct TEXT unicode 0xFF
Log "text.txt" 0 SIZE
