Hi all,
Recently I've been looking again into properly processing ".PCK" archives as I have a feeling I'm missing out on a decent ratio by just processing them with srep & lolz.
So far the current steps I've got figured out are to extract each file from the PCK archive using the handy BMS script provided by panker (https://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p=493765&postcount=2).
From here we're left with a variety of files. In the case of the following sample from the title "Immortals: Fenyx Rising" (https://i.imgur.com/kuMrXAi.png) we're left with a bunch (753) of apparent ".wav" audio files however attempting to decode them with a regular player app, like VLC will result in failure. A similar result is met when trying to pack these files with MSC (no streams are detected).
Currently I've been following some threads on XeNTaX[1] (https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=6299&p=51705)[2] (https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?t=6918)[3] (https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?t=8076), however at least at the time of writing I haven't had any luck with finding a method to decode the files into a pack-able format, and then subsequently recode/patch these valid files back into their original CRC-matching form.
Has anyone had any success stories they'd be willing to share?
