extractor *ASR *DDS

Welcome!
Luigi is the ability to write a program to extract files and edit * ASR * DDS and others?
*pc file with regard to the game Sniper Elite.

aluigi · **Posted:** 25 Oct 2009 22:55

asr and pc files are practically the same type of archive and if I'm not in error Game Extractor claims to be able to extract them:
http://www.watto.org/extract/

remember that some of these files are compressed (when you open them with a hex editor you can notice the "AsuraCmp" signature at the beginning) and in that case you must uncompress them first with my tool: http://aluigi.org/papers/asurauncmp.zip

dds instead are normal image files so you can edit them with any image editor which supports them

GameExtractor well can handle the file type * * DDS and WAV files but they are still in your packed files * pc * ASR and I can not wypakowa??.Powiedz only if you are able to write such a program that extracts all the files contained in the files * PC.S?? Programs MUltiExtractor type is doing well with DDS files, WAV, but lacks the option to have unpacked the files * ASR course files * PC are already unzipped

And I mean a program where you can modify the map files to the levels of 3D objects, and many more:)

Sorry for mistakes

if you are looking for an editor+reimporter I can't help because I make only extractors (I don't know if the game can work also with the extracted files, I have not verified it).

I have not fully understood the rest of the problem, maybe I could check if I can write a script for quickbms.
if there will be updates I will post them here

aluigi · **Posted:** 26 Oct 2009 15:41

the following is a script for quickbms (http://aluigi.org/papers.htm#quickbms):

http://aluigi.org/papers/bms/asura.bms

it extracts all the data in the RSCF chunks, included the types different than mode 2 (used for the real files) although they are not useful

Thanks Luigi:)

Hi Aluigi can know this file format? If so, then it opens?

aluigi · **Posted:** 08 Nov 2009 23:24

uhmmm no, it doesn't look an archive

Hi! Luigi I have a question? After decompressing the file * the PC is the possibility of restoring the file to its original state?
And one more thing:) Do you know might have any programs that will be able to open the file * pc and edit it? Thanks in advance and greet:)

aluigi · **Posted:** 30 Nov 2009 16:50

if with "restoring" you mean rebuilding the archive, no it's not possible (I work only on extraction).
and no, for the PC file I don't have idea if exist other tools, if I'm not in error game extractor "claimed" to support them but it revelead to be wrong.

klapek · **Joined:** 25 Oct 2009 22:39 **Posts:** 11

It is understood from August can not repackage the file a little damage; / so sorry that you played:) But I have another idea is to Program (GameExtractor)
is the possibility of rewriting the script of the (quickbms) to GExtractor?
Is there any chance that this shell script will work for GE? I know of in this program you can edit files with multiple games that can and would work something you can deal with up thanks for the reply I greet

aluigi · **Posted:** 02 Dec 2009 10:06

the problem is that GE uses the original bms language which is terribly limited.
all the script can be converted in the old bms language except the "padding 4" for which I have no idea due to even the absence of the modulus operator!

if you want to try, I have "tried" the conversion (except the padding one obviously):

Code:

get PACK_SIZE asize 0 ;
getdstring SIGN 8 0 ;

for ;
savepos CHUNK_OFFSET 0 ;
set TMP long CHUNK_OFFSET ;
math TMP += 16 ;
if TMP >= PACK_SIZE ;
cleanexit ;
endif ;
getdstring CHUNK 4 0 ;
get CHUNKSZ long 0 ;
get DUMMY long 0 ;
get DUMMY long 0 ;
if CHUNK == RSCF ;
get TYPE long 0 ;
get DUMMY long 0 ;
get SIZE long 0 ;
get NAME string 0 ;
if TYPE == 2 ;
#padding 4 ; DOES NOT WORK!
endif ;
savepos OFFSET 0 ;
log NAME OFFSET SIZE 0 ;
endif ;
math CHUNK_OFFSET += CHUNKSZ ;
goto CHUNK_OFFSET 0 ;
next ;

and you must first unpack all the asuracmp files before doing the job using my asurauncmp tool, but that thing of the padding will cause tons of problems in any case

Can associate the header AsuraZlb? Rogue Warrior

And it is a program to decompress it?

aluigi · **Posted:** 12 Feb 2010 11:23

I didn't saw that post about "AsuraZlb", can you upload one of these small files on sendspace.com?

aluigi · **Posted:** 12 Feb 2010 14:51

it's not longer needed, I have updated the script that now should be also better for the other files because I have removed a work-around and adopted a better solution, so let's update:
http://aluigi.org/papers/bms/asura.bms

Thanks for this tool, sometimes it's very handy. However I'm still having a problem with the "AsuraZlb" files. Here's the message I get:

Code:

- open input file E:\tmp\avp3\quickbms\input\Multiplayer.asr
- open script E:\tmp\avp3\quickbms\asura.bms
- set output folder E:\tmp\avp3\quickbms\output

  offset     filesize   filename
---------------------------------

- error in src\quickbms.c line 6628: myalloc()
Error: No such file or directory

Press RETURN to quit

I have successfully extracted some smaller files with the "AsuraZlb" header from the same game.

aluigi · **Posted:** 12 Feb 2010 23:23

uhmmm very strange an hypothesis could be that the archive and its contained file is really very big, or that you don't have enough memory and virtual memory to handle it.
how much big is the file?
are you using quickbms version 0.3.14c? (it's not important but having the last version sometimes is useful)

can you try to use offzip with it? (http://aluigi.org/mytoolz.htm#offzip)
example:
offzip E:\tmp\avp3\quickbms\input\Multiplayer.asr c:\output.asr 0x14

then launch quickbms with the asura.bms script on output.asr.

It seems to work. Checking with the larger files:) The operations conducted on a smaller file
http://www.sendspace.com/file/bkd5tf
And it is possible to extract header "AsuraZlb" to be able to edit the file I mean generally the substitution textures?

BMS is a great board with all the unpacked files)

aluigi · **Posted:** 13 Feb 2010 11:17

sure, you can use the offzip trick to decompress the asurazlb file and you can use the "unpacked" one as replacement and editing it as much as you want.

I offzipped the file(461 MB) and after that it extracted nicely. I still can't get my hands on the models since they are in some weird format without file extension but this really has nothing to do with quickbms so thanks for helping aluigi. I'll keep trying..

klapek · **Joined:** 25 Oct 2009 22:39 **Posts:** 11

The script works perfectly:) unpacked all the files based on the engine Asura
AsuraCmp AsuraZlb Maybe you know any programs to modify the files of the games based on this engine? I mean generally the removal of substitution textures of objects and access to the configuration files? I tried the script in Game Extractor Asura.bms and MultiEx Commander but there are any errors and I have no idea what was going on, / I found info about this program to modify files *. PC

aluigi · **Posted:** 25 Mar 2010 09:32

personally I don't know, I have seen a discussion on xentax but being not in the community of this game doesn't allow me to know more.

This program is very good, used for extracting files. DDS. TGA. WAV
files. PC. ENT. ASR
Created by Leon Zawodowiec of Poland in 2009.
The program is in Polish and translated by me in Spanish.

Could be as activate the edit options?
After reading what the block and save the file Asura crashes the game if it is associated with the checksum?

klapek76 · **Joined:** 04 Dec 2010 20:30 **Posts:** 7

Hey Luigi
You can look at the screen that it can fulfill the functions and whether this could be to compile anything?

aluigi · **Posted:** 18 Dec 2010 12:34

I don't understand the problem you have and I even don't think it's something related to my tools.

anyway that "disassembly" you pasted is heap memory containing data, not execution code

The program is not finished is why the option to edit is not working. You must extract the files. dds or tga and then edit them with Adobe Photoshop or Paint.Net. Once modified to re-import and save.
