Can a BMS script help for doing this http://www.vg-resource.com/thread-28403.html

Maybe yes because is a compressed file ?

Yes sir, here you go: http://pastebin.com/raw/PiQnry6F, I took a quick look at the decompressed data, and it looks like the texture data is GTX, so you may want to check with Random Talking Bush in order to figure it out
I'd like to say: If you want more difficult and different archives to try out, I can provide some and walk you through them

Do you happen to have any simple archives for a beginner to test out and analyze? I would really like to learn, but I'm having difficulty learning haha

Here's a simple archive ;3

I acutally figured out the format just now. If you need help, me or TGE can help you out

I'm looking at it haha I've got as far as the magic id right now xD trying to figure out endiness

EDIT: I'm absolute crap at this. I don't understand a single thing. I'm just not a script writer. I'm frustrated right now, I give up. This is embarrassing.

EDIT: I'm absolute crap at this. I don't understand a single thing. I'm just not a script writer. I'm frustrated right now, I give up. This is embarrassing.

Here's my code for this file:

I'll walk you through it, and help you to figure it out for yourself. Remember that reverse engineering is a process, and takes a while to learn the tools of the trades, keep at it, and remember to ask questions. Questions are essential to learning

First is the idstring. This is four bytes that make up the string, "TGP0". This goes down in our script. This prevents the script from being used with incompatible files.

Next is a unknown value. However we don't need to know all the values of a file to extract the contents, This value looks like a 4 byte value, so we list that down as "get unk long". A long, is a 4 byte value.

Right here is a group of dummy bytes, with the value of zero. We read past this:

So next value, We'll assume this is the file count. If you count the amount of filenames, you can see there are 139, which 0x8b, which is our filecount. So list this as "get FileCount long".

That's our file header. We've read through the header, so now to the file table. For reading our file data, we can use a for loop. This'll allow us to have a variable ("i" in this case) and keep looping the code until i equals FileCount, which is 139. So the code in our loop will loop 139 times. So let's get started on that.

So we create a variable called i, with the value of 0. FileCount is greater than zero, so it does the code in between the for and next tags once. Then QuickBMS increases i by one. It will do this until i equals FileCount or exceeds it.

Looks like the format goes like this: FileName, Null Bytes, then the Offset and Size of the file. FileName should be self explanatory. Null bytes are a group of bytes with the value of 0. Offset is the position of the data of the file, and the Size is the amount of bytes in the file. So our code will look like this:

You might be wondering what this part is:

This is another type of loop, that in this case allows us to skip past all those null bytes. You might also wonder, since we read past those dummy/null bytes before, why can't we do it the same way here? Well the way the file works is that the dummy bytes adds padding to make the file align to a certain offset, which lets the game console's CPU load the data without modifying it. This allows for faster loading ingame. To make a long story short, the loop reads one byte at a time, and checks if it's equal to 0. Until it equals something other than 0, it will continue to go one byte at a time. Now that the byte doesn't equal 0, we save the our current position, and subtract 1. Since we had to read the byte to make sure it wasn't zero, we need to go back in order to properly read it. Then we go to the new position that we created.

So finally we're almost done. Now we need to make QuickBMS save the data to a file. We do this by using the "log"
command. It works like this: log filename offset size. All of those values, we read before. So we just need to feed those values to the log command:

Then finally we can save it to a file and load it up using QuickBMS, and it'll extract the files from the archive! If you have any questions on the script writing process, please post them. I'll try to answer them to the best of my ability!

maybe you guys can help me out, I've been trying to rip models from Socom 2.

Here is a folder for one of the multiplayer maps I'm trying to get the model from. https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9k19z3nx6u6vco/MP9.7z?dl=0

here are the couple of bms scripts I've been using

SOCOMZDB.bms


SOCOMzarZED.bms

this bit of info was on the ps23dformat site

03 02 00 01 04 80 XX 6D
{2ByteSignedIntegerVertexes(X,Y,Z)+2ByteSignedIntegerNormalMappings(X,Y,Z)+2ByteSignedIntegerTextureMappings(U,V)}
02 01 00 01

so far I can get it extracted and it gives me a list of models with no extension and that's where I'm stuck because I'm not sure what it should be.

Mind if I dump my QuickBMS scripts here? I feel this would be a better place for them than my own model ripping thread.

I didn't even see this! Sorry, I'll add them too

EDIT: Added the both of your scripts

Hi, great job I'm a novice at this but followed a little guide, I could not unzip this file if good so kind to give me a hand as a serious guide helpfu
https://mega.nz/#!g0QgnCwb!UyGNZFXbXLOS7...O6B2Gb3SGo

I recall that once I used quickbms, but the models came without textures and even non uv mapped.

How much things changed?

Question. Is there a quickbms script that can extract .bin files from games made by JADE Engine?
