majesty 2

[ramboing]

I was looking for a way to open majesty 2 resource files (the expansion ones are encrypted). The majesty2.bms converted resource_pp_01 through 03 pak files into zip files, but the zips are still encrypted and the zip.bms does not open them. Am I missing something or is that all it does, convert encrypted pak files into zip files that I still can't open?

Is this a recent change in Majesty 2?
I don't remember a similar problem.

I don't know, but probably. They probably weren't encrypted at release. Haven't played Majesty in years. All I know is I tried modding the expansion files but though I can mod the base game, the pak files for the expansions won't open. The majesty.bms turns the first 3 pak files into encrypted zips, and won't even turn resource_pp_04.pak into a zip file.

I may have solved my problem. I got the player-made Cold Sunrise expansion for Majesty, which has data files for all the expansion units in a non-encrypted pak.

That one looks like a very good solution, less work for me

Hey aluigi,

Thanks for your awesome work. I ran into a need to get campaign data from expansions 2 and 3 for Majesty 2. Your script works perfectly on DLCs and the 1st expansion, but does not work on second and third. I think they changed the hash.

Could you please help with this problem?

Thanks!
