ConverterPIX - Game formats to middle formats

[abasstreppas]

Great work mwl4, will you update the first page with that post too. It is easier to find all new parameters then

[50keda]

Well this simply calls for a importer wrapper Now as we have listings user could be able to select file and even navigate to desired model and as last import it ... hmm....

[abasstreppas]

Go, go, go

[50keda]

@abass: but there is a problem... What happens when someone does that on a mod and mod is not "standalone" with some missing resources? Fallback to base I guess... that wrapper addon should have same input as B2SCS had: 2 paths, where second is just for a fallback...

[SiSL]

well, it does not list some of SCS# I had so I assume not all SCS# can be extracted or listed

[mwl4]

@SiSL, it is not depended on implementation, but rather on available information in SCS# format. Idea of the HashFS is storing the hashes, not paths.
Basically you can only get real paths by reading directory file (this is some trick, directory content is stored in file named as directory path). So for example in base.scs "/" file looks like:

Code: Select all

*automat
*contentbrowser
*dlc
*effect
*font
*map
*material
*model
*model2
*prefab
*prefab2
*road_template
*sound
*system
*ui
*unit
*vehicle
*video
autoexec.cfg
version.txt

* on the beginning means directory.

"/vehicle" file looks as follows:

Code: Select all

*ai
*driver
*share
*trailer_eu
*truck
*wheel

Of course directory files are flagged as directory. There is no other way to list files from HashFS. You can extract all files from HashFS, however you will not have paths, what is not desired I think.

Additionally, some .scs files do not have "/" file inside (like locale.scs), but they have "/locale" directory for instance:
locale.scs/locale:

Code: Select all

*bg_bg
*ca_es
*cs_cz
*cy_gb
*da_dk
*de_de
*el_gr
*en_gb
*en_us
*es_es
*es_la
*et_ee
*eu_es
*fi_fi
*fr_fr
*gl_es
*hr_hr
*hu_hu
*it_it
*ja_jp
*ka_ge
*ko_kr
*lt_lt
*lv_lv
*mk_mk
*nl_nl
*no_no
*pl_pl
*pl_si
*pt_br
*pt_pt
*ro_ro
*ru_ru
*sk_sk
*sl_sl
*sr_sp
*sr_sr
*sv_se
*tr_tr
*uk_uk
*vi_vn
*zh_cn
*zh_tw
autodetect.conf
locale.rev

locale.scs/locale/pl_pl:

Code: Select all

local.override.sii
local.sii
mails.sii

@50keda, ConverterPIX supports multiple base paths.

[SiSL]

Ah makes sense now. I guess "/" didn't work that way, thanks for the update mate , btw, small request, if I accidently type wrong name of folder to extract or forgot quotes for base folder, application crashes, may be it would just be best to file folder exists check and exit on error.

[mwl4]

Well, this might be fixed, however better solution will be just providing GUI to the application

[SiSL]

Not GUI but I made a small Batch file for Windows.

Copy following code to a Notepad file, edit path variables in for your directories (game files, extraction path, convertion path) save it in same folder with scs_extractor.exe and converter_pix.exe and run it. It automatically select 1st choice in 90 seconds.

@mwl: Yesteday I tried new version however had problems because I tried to convert sth directly from ZIP, do you plan to add zip support soon? Now as you have HashFS it would be also nice to have zip support otherwise my idea of importing models will have to wait.
