Question regarding LZX/D recompression.

[Masquerade]

You will need a database in order to use the xcompress XTool plugin.

Weird that BMS2XTL does not work for this file, although the BMS script extracts the archive just fine.

There's Razor's old LZXRec too however that does not work on this file.

My only guess is that maybe the sample is using the "dk2" comtype, which is the only other compression algorithm referenced in the BMS script (assuming you're talking about "dead_space_3.bms"), but what "dk2" refers to is anyones guess, a quick search online doesn't yield much information.

Tried making a database for every "*.STR" archive using the BMS script and it seems like bms2xtl is working as it can find functions in the console output, but no ".XTL" database is generated, not sure if this is the same issue you experienced but its a tad odd.

"DK2" is probably Dungeon Keeper 2. (I googled for "dk2" "quickbms".)
