Forza Method 22 (.zip)

[CTRLC]

I think it's new version of the game but not sure tho, we have to hear him from himself.

[umisery]

It's presumably the latest version.

Edit: It is and it's uploaded!

I still can't believe how they dump the game using x64dbg, uploaded game version is May 7th 2019(UPDATE 9 included.)

Just saw the post on cs.rin - yes PoD is very clever and this is great

I was looking at methods to dump decrypted files directly from ram without much success. I hadn't come across this one yet

Forza studio will extract decrypted FH4 zips too

Just discovered that Winrar can extract the zips now too!

I have got LogerMan torrent from cs.rin and cannot find the update 9 cars. Which release are you looking at?

[CTRLC]

In the site it says game downloaded from microsoft store on 8 may, but when ı look at the version and cars yeah that's the 18 april version of the game.

Yeah that is what dumping means.

Anything can extract car zips with normal compression, but a lot of other zips are Method 22 (hence this topic) and can't be extracted even with Forza Studio (which uses aluigi's Forza BMS script and only supports Method 21)

Yeah that is what dumping means.

Yes and no, now EFS encryption is removed but a lot of zips still contain the uncracked Method 22. The latest updates of FH3 use the same compression method.

Thanks for clarifying umisery. Previously I couldn't extract F7 / Fh3 zips without forzastudio. I haven't checked all files yet but so far most seem to extract fine with winrar (from the FH4 PoD dump)

Try camera.zip, that usually has M22. I don't have the files so I can't test but there should definitely be some, not the majority, but some with M22. If not then they must've changed it with an update which would be awesome.

Where ca I find FH4 game files to download?

Yep, camera.zip throws an error.

Update:
I have just downloaded a decrypted update and camera.zip is openable.

[umisery]

Openable=/=extractable. Even in the latest update camera.zip is still method 22.

You are right - after last decrypted update, it is no longer openable / extractable.
