PCARS physic files encryption

Post by kilof »

Hi, it's possible to unpack .bff files of PCARS with Shift2 script but physic files are now encrypted. I've also uploaded Shift2 files to give rough idea how these should look like. Can you take a look?

There are various zero bytes so I don't think they are encrypted.
Anyway it may be useful to have an old version of the same files for comparison, because you said that they were readable before (that's what I have understood).

I meant files are now encrypted as PCars is based on engine of Shift2 and in Shift1 and S2U they were readable. I don't know if they were readable too in early builds of PCars but I doubt I can find old .bff files now anyway.
What I've just discovered is physic files of game Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends are also in same unreadable form as in PCars.
