Opening .bin, .caf and .lst files? - Red Lightfoot - 11-24-2015

So I was trying to rip Ghost Trick mobile version and in the IPA it had a bunch of .bin and .caf files. 
Now i assume .caf is music so would the sprites be in the .bin files? 
I'm still new to sprite ripping an this is the first time i've come across these extensions. 
Also curious on what the .lst files are.

You are correct in assuming the .caf files are audio. VLC Media Player plays them fine, you can probably find various programs to convert them to WAV.
The .lst files, no idea what those are. Look like little stores of something or other. Ditto for the .bin files. Neither of them are graphics, as far as I can tell.

Are there any other files? For graphics you're generally looking in the hundreds of kilobytes range, or higher (depends whether they're in individual files or one large archive).

There is a file with no extension called "CodeResources" with 184kb.
I would assume it would be in there (not sure how i didn't see it earlier)
not sure how i would open it though.

there's also some .strings files.

Hm. 184KB still isn't a lot, I don't think it's likely that the graphics are in there. And the .strings file almost certainly just contains text.

Oh! theres a .pac file 281,908kb
only file that has that many kb's
how would i go about extracting it?

Upload a sample and I'll check it out tomorrow.


RE: Opening .bin, .caf and .lst files? - Red Lightfoot - 11-24-2015

by sample you mean the whole file?

Ah yeah, that's what I meant. I posted that at 3Cute8am Tongue

Unfortunately I don't know what to do with it though. I think I may know how to get the offsets, but I have no idea what to do with the actual data. Maybe try asking at ZenHAX, they might have a better idea.
