[Xbox 360] Call of Duty 4 .hi format

[Gazyi]

TextureFinder didn't help, any ways to convert into .iwi or .dds?
Attached .hi from Xbox version, .iwi and .dds from PC version.

the *.hi are easy to decode but they are headerless and so there is no precise way to script it, the only factor to work from is datasize.
do you see any other extracted files that look like they contain header info?

[Gazyi]

Probably not, I looked at most files, each starts with different hex codes.

Any other tips?

[Acewell]

nope, no tips. format, width and height is a guessing game without header info.
the data is just typical big-endian and tiled for X360 though.

[Gazyi]

I think width and height are same as in PC - 2048x1024. Don't know about format, maybe it's still DXT.
How to deal with tiling and convert it from big-endian to little-endian?

[Acewell]

this is the best i can do with these headerless textures,
it is a Noesis python script where you have to set the format width and height yourself

tex_CallofDuty4_X360_hi.zip

it is not automated, you have to edit and resave by hand on each time you test.

It works. Thank you.
