Just Dance 2014 WiiU (.tpl.ckd)

Post by DiiMashups »

Hello again, i've been searching for JD2014 WiiU files, again and i found a strange file, (.tpl). I guess it might be what the game loads but it has alot of broken characters? Is there any way to decrypt those or at least to convert them to a text file (ex. xml or txt?) Here's a file of it.

NOTE: .CKD is only an identifier of the asset being ready for the game.

github.com/byvar/ubi-canvas, try this tool, it allows viewing of those files.

I don't think it works on Just Dance games, only Rayman... I can ask for support for that game series though.

These are plain LUA files, partially serialized, check https://github.com/byvar/ubi-canvas/wiki/Serialization for more info.

You will have to open a scene file using the serialized file from the entire game's cache directory decompressed in the viewer and check the tabs until your file is listed to see the plaintext data. But as I said before, JD games aren't supported by the tool yet...

I'm working on adding support for Just Dance, yes. I have a lot of work at the moment so it's going really slowly, but it is happening. We'll see if that includes KTAPE and DTAPE files, but probably. :)

Um I just realized these aren't from Just Dance 2014
They are from its japanese version called Just Dance Wii U.
