Title: new file system CASC

blizzard will not be using the MPQ anymore they changed to fromate called CASC for more go to http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/136454 ... s-4-3-2014 (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/13645405/warlords-of-draenor%E2%84%A2-alpha-testing-begins-4-3-2014" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x

This is already used in heroes of the storm. Chaud et al already are able to read from those files at least. Format can't be too complex. Missing tools will be the bigger problem in modifying WoD.

Since it's able to push updates etc without even notifying the user and if it's able to repair itself, then it might cause quite the issue for people playing on private servers (if there is ever going to be a stable server core).

But reading/extracting shouldn't be too hard as Schlumpf said. But as with Cataclysm and Mists of Pandaria it's more likely going to be the lack of tools to support those versions that's going to be an issue.

After some communication, as far as I know the current state on CASC files is

Being able to push into them is nothing I think that would be a problem with private servers. As the server is emulated, it most likely won't push/repair the clients archives magically. (just like stuff like warden is not active on emulated servers; even less blizzard being able to push stuff to warden when playing on a private server)

In the article they mention that the new file system is a lot faster. Can anyone explain why? MPQ already works via hashtable as far as I am aware which is always O(1) since the time to access is always the same? How can you get faster than that?

My knowledge on this is rather limited but I want to learn more.

TBH: No idea unless I see it. Most likely it is faster due to no longer having multiple MPQs needing a linear lookup back to front and potentially applying a bsdiff. The main problem with MPQs was dynamically adding/removing files, thus patching was done with layering / later layered diffs). If the archive can easily be modified, there is no need to check if there is the same file in a separate archive, as there only is one.

I managed to export a lot of textures, sounds and models with "offzip" and hex (didn't use Tom's extractor). The problem is that they don't have file names (and .m2 models are almost useless without .skin files)
Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: akspa420 on April 05, 2014, 07:15:26 pm
It's only a matter of time before someone releases something like stormlib for CASC files. We just have to be patient.
It looks as though the guys at mmo-champion have got a handle on it, though. They've dumped stuff from the DBC files already, as well as the minimap files.
Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: phucko1 on April 05, 2014, 07:26:19 pm
I tried Inico's method of using Offzip, but that only leaves me with either 12kb UUU and BLP files or very small .DAT files, and .DAT Files are useless couse they're a unspecificed format.

They are easy to get. The hard part is to get models and their correct skins.

Also: some textures i exported manually:

Nothing awesome, but it's currently possible to export them.

The M2 Files are still well.. the same from what I can see, but yeah since we don't know how to retrieve filenames yet it's near impossible at the moment to match up any extracted M2 with the Correct SKIN files.

You can use Jaeder Naub, as noted in this little guide here for HOTS:
https://www.ownedcore.com/forums/heroes ... ost2975855 (https://www.ownedcore.com/forums/heroes-of-storm/heroes-of-storm-general/461879-heroes-of-storm-alpha-15.html#post2975855" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

After a while, you might end up making your own dumper. I ended up making an 010 Editor script to dump out m2 files and skin files(clunky on the skin part, still needs work).  But depending on your boredom and time to spare will tell what you yield. :)  But as noted already by others, the filenames aren't retrieved in the Dat files, so yeah.....

I've tried that, but when I try to use offzip, I get

"zlib Z_DATA_ERROR, the data in the file is not in zip format  or uses a different windowBits value (-z). Try to use -z -15"

and I don't really know what to do.

I ended up making a script in 010 Editor to find and export out specific chunks of data within the offzip dump.

I merely suggested Jaeder Naub because it was what I first used before I went and made my own solution as many others are doing now by writing their own tools to do it.

Hello,

I'm the author of the blte extraction tool

I''ve just added m2 files support, so make sure to clone, compile & have fun!

Also, I'm looking for some information about few file types:
rvxt, hsxg, skin

Have you ever heard about those? If yes, please drop me a message using PM on this forum :)

Also, in the github repo you can find full file list!

PS. Can't post links yet, stupid spam filter :C

Just run "cmd.exe"
and type
BLTEExtractor.exe "input file" "output"

For me :

BLTEExtractor.exe data.003 out
I put the data.003 in the folder with BLTEExtractor because i'm lazy.


Works for every data except the 000

Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: akspa420 on April 06, 2014, 06:46:09 pm
I think that the way mmo-champion is dealing with the new files is by reading them through wow - at least that would explain why on their stream, wow is still running in the background while their model viewer shows content.

I'm guessing that upon launching of the client, it literally mounts the data files as a virtual drive, and accesses the data directly through its own means of virtualized storage. This would likely be the reason why they've been able to get so much data out while the rest of us try to reverse engineer the file format.

I did take a look at the strings in the new executable, and surprisingly, all the bits for STORM still exist - perhaps there's a good reason for this.
Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: TheRealDavidTwo on April 06, 2014, 06:49:14 pm
So we'll just totally have to wait for someone to fix Modelviewer for WoD then. Shouldn't take too long if the MMO-Champion guys did it. (And I tried having the client open; made no real difference)

There is no identifying header in .anim files. You can't identify them automatically.

Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: phucko1 on April 07, 2014, 03:55:02 pm
How I found my files:
Export data with BLT Extractor.
Sort files by filetype and filename, open the biggest filesize m2s in 010editor and look up their real names. (Found Orcmale,Dwarfmale,Dwarffemale,Nightelffemale, TaurenMale, GnomeMale and GnomeFemale so far.)
Look at their vertice value: TaurenMale example has 19549
Then take all .BLPs to a seperate folder, get BLPView so you can see .BLP Textures live in Explorer.

Now remember that BLTEExtractor exports .SKIN files as .BLP, so the BLP files that doesn't show an image is actually a skin. Open those files in 010editor and look for indice value equal to vertice value in m2.

This is why i got for now.
This orc, with garrosh skin (the only texture i have found).

Nude skin (without items) don't have legs and arms (Rayman mod)
But when i equip pants and bracers, it works.

But no fucking ears, and lot of bugs ingame

Some animations works, attack, defend, stomp etc... but emotes don't.

I have currently 3 .skin.


I will try to finish this shit,

Ok i start to unpack from the newest DATA file to the lowest and got all files from the WoD now i try to view all new Models in Model viewer to get the Textures on it.
I got now : All WoD Icons and all Wod Sounds the next step is to get the new models.
I export the new Character Models and redesign the missing Parts or try to find them now.

I think the M2´s are broken i can´t open anything the 010 Editor show me red errors the Model viewer Show me too errors but the Textures are Working. I tried everything with that m2 files but nothing work. I got the Full OrcFemaleHD Files tried to show them in the WMV or change the versions with 010 Editor but nothing work.

What i got:
Every WoD Icon - sort
Every WoD Tilesets - sort
Every WoD Sound Files - sort
Every M2 - Sort

What i need:
Something to read the M2 Files.

@Rangorn and Helnesis
Very, Very nice you guys got it  :D
Some Questions to you, did you downgrade this models with the 010 Templates or own scripts ?
Sometimes the Model viewer load the models but they are invisible. So i dont know whether they broken or something, better ask before I edit a corrupt file and I do not know  :( ^^

So this Model on WMV:
(https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Screenshots/Screenshot%202014-04-08%2005.30.06.png?_subject_uid=279864630&w=AAD80WXnnpkUA2w2Rx2ok10PcwGVAg64Iytw17xs9HUMPw)
Nothing changed on the M2 File.

Ok i know where the Problem is the Model Viewer can´t find the .skin file so i need to datamine until i find the skin...

He doesn't because of no .anim files. Did the same today with Grommash, Blackhand too. Most part of common animations (like run, jump, swim) work, but not emotions.

I did two simple 010 editor scripts. One of them should find the first .skin file of model 00.skin (using Properties value from model) then second one will find 3 more skins with the same value of Triangles from 00.skin.
Maybe it can be done easier, I just took some of the first same values of .m2 and 00.skin.

Cromon's tool is working like a charm. Though the listfile is incomplete it's easy to get more data. I made some smaller listfiles for files excluded in the listfile provided by Cromon and TOM_RUS. They might be incomplete.

Included in the doodad filelists are the M2, SKIN and BLP files for every doodad. The tilesets are only BLPs and work without any hassle on 3.3.5.

These are listfiles only.

I've got list files for all static world doodads added in WoD. Credit to Cromon and Tom_Rus for making this possible. Thanks to Alram for helping me get the BLP export automated. Thanks to Blizzard for WoD.

drop the m2 to notepad my friend and search for blp  copy the texture filepaths to the filelist. As for skins...Just guess, a skin simply adds two digits after a filename. So... apple01.m2, would become apple0100.skin, and if it has two skins it'd be apple0101.skin So always add a couple of extra skins just incase, the extractor won't extract what wasn't there.  thx to Gurluas

You need to export the model from MV to your Model Editor and then you need to delete or repositioning the geosets, after this you need to get the bones with animations from the new model to your 3.3.5 model.
I think thats the only way, but only from my sight ^^

I find it odd that no one has mentioned that the extractor is able to extract a 'signature' file from the CASC files, of which lists a bunch more resources that aren't listed in the extractor's listfile. Maybe I'm wrong. The signature file appears to use a ";" to delimit the text contained in it, making it easy to pull out the embedded listfile.

The signature file does not contain a full file list. But yes, using that, the listfile from MoP, and extracting paths from the DBC's / file contents, you can get a listfile that is over 99% complete.

Hey, I used the BLTE code to extract the M2 files and it worked

I did add some source code that it automatically extracted all of the data.xxx file

The result was that all of the files had these GUIDs as filenames

Here is a piece of code that reads in the M2 file and extracts the name of the model and replaces the GUID of the name with its correct name.

For all of the m2 files ( about 45000 files) the process takes about 3 minutes ( give or take)

Code: [Select]
using System;
using System.IO;

namespace RenameM2Files
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:Warlords Of Draenor\Extracted", "*.m2");

            int currentFile = 1;
            string nbrFiles =  files.Length.ToString();
            foreach (string file in files)
            {
                string newName = "";
                using (var br = new BinaryReader(File.OpenRead(file)))
                {
                    br.ReadBytes(8);
                    var nameLen = br.ReadUInt32();
                    var nameOff = br.ReadUInt32();

                    br.BaseStream.Seek(nameOff, SeekOrigin.Begin);

                    var name = br.ReadString((int)nameLen);

                    newName = name.Substring(0, name.Length - 1);
                    br.Close();
                }
               
                var info = new FileInfo(file);
                newName = info.Directory.FullName + "\" + newName + ".m2";
               
                if(!File.Exists(newName))
                    info.MoveTo(newName);
               
                if (File.Exists(file))
                    File.Delete(file);

                Console.WriteLine(currentFile.ToString() + " / " + nbrFiles);

                currentFile++;
            }
            Console.WriteLine("DONE");
            Console.ReadKey();

        }

       
    }
}

here is the extension method for the binaryReader:

Code: [Select]
using System;
using System.IO;


namespace System.IO
{
    public static class Extesions
    {
        public static string ReadString(this BinaryReader br, int nbrChars)
        {
            string ret = "";
            for (int i = 0; i < nbrChars; i++)
            {
                ret = string.Concat(ret, br.ReadChar());
                if (ret == "")
                    return null;
            }
            return ret;
        }
    }
}

Hope this can help someone :)

Anyone found out how to map the hash file names to a decent file name ?

I only succeeded in doing this for the m2 files, since the name of the file is actually in the file itself...

but for all the rest... I got nothing :/

Any help or idea is welcome

There is none, it is a one-way function. The only possibility to reverse it is creating a lookup table. What helps most -- and how the most filenames were discovered -- is looking at patterns used in the client or references from DBCs etc. In the end, it is purely guessing, or brute-forcing.

It's rather easy getting the World M2s (Draenor) and WMOs (Again, Draenor) from just the Draenor ADTs. Iirc raid WMOs can be gathered from DBCs.
Title: Re: new file system CASC
Post by: schlumpf on June 15, 2014, 09:51:40 pm
In the end, just things like
Code: [Select]
find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 strings | grep -i "blp|adt|wmo|m2|mdx|mdl|dbc|wdt|wdl|pm4|phys|skin|anim" | sed -e s,mdl,m2,g -e s,mdx,m2,g | xargs ./extract
for i in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 3); do find . -type f -iname "*m2" | sed -e s,.m2,$i.skin, | xargs extract; done
for i in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 500); do for j in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 5); do find . -type f -iname "*m2" | sed -e s,.m2,$i-$j.anim, | xargs extract; done; done

Hey Guys, I'm a noob again in this day of WoD... anyone got a guide on how to extract data from the WoD alpha installation?  But before that, a download to the installer and the tools?  Or is there an actual beta now?

Sorry for being a pain, i've just been out of this scene for so long, I'm at a loss onto what to even do to get started.  To many people 9 months may not be a long time however when you stop cold turkey and dedicate all of your time, energy, and drive into learning and mastering something else, it's amazing how much you can forget.

Thanks for anyone that helps. :)

It's easier to just use the CASCExplorer (https://github.com/WoW-Tools/CASCExplorer) by TOM_RUS. It works with all versions, it just requires the listfile to be updated if you want to see the new content.

How did he make that listfile anyway ??

I already tried several stuff to do it, no success: example:

from the listfile I took this line:

CharacterBloodElfFemaleBloodElfFemaleFaceLower18_08.blp

calculated the Hash for it, which gives me this: 493C128A4B90E96DE0A5B0229ECCE19A

but there is no file with that hash value ... also tried without the extension... still no luck

hlp plz...

Since 2014, Blizzard Entertainment has changed data format in their games from MPQ to CASC (Content Addressable Storage Container).

As preliminary release, I put a beta version of CascLib to Github.
