I am currently in the process of datamining Gates to Infinity. However, I've come across a file type called .img, which displays 2D images, such as text, textboxes and main menu artwork. Since I have no knowledge of programming, I can't create a program to convert the file type. But I have read up on Megadrifter's post on how the file format operates, unfortunately I'd need programming knowledge if I was to create a program to convert it.

you can see this old source code for cte image format (*.img) or use my unFARC tool for extracting cte image from FARC file. For additional information for pixel format supported by cte file format (*.img)  :

Quote

1 - direct RGBA8
2 - RGB8
3 - RGBA8
4 - ETC1
5 - ETC1A4
6 - RGB565
7 - Direct LA4
8 - LA4
9 - RGBA4
10 - RGBA5551 

bclim/bflim/cte tool already supported all of discovered pixel format used by SMD 3DS game, but some of them are not supported by my unFARC tool. so far i know unFARC tool can convert most img file on Gate of infinity or Super.

Its good to be  back

yeah, but is little bit slow to access some pages.

so far is not posted in here , today got much free time and poking around PMDS Font. is using pretty simple format where img file is cte format (LA4 as texture format), and dic file as pointing font image on font sheet image just like bitmap font.

here for dic format on PMDS font :

 

HeaderMagicHeader - 4 byte - KAND 0x4B414E44u1          - 4 byte - always 0x0CharacterCount       - 4 byte - u2          - 4 byte - always 0x0Character Data (20 byte)Character Code (Unicode) - 2 bytePosition X               - 2 bytePosition Y               - 2 byteLine Feed Width          - 2 byteLine Feed Height (?)     - 2 byteRight Space Width        - 2 byteRight Space Height (?)   - 2 byteGlyph Width              - 2 byteGlyph Heigth             - 2 byte?                        - 2 byte

 

Yeah, i clicked the download link and a BIG red window poped up saying that my antivirus quarantined a Trojan. it's a damn shame really.

download button is on green button not red one, you should install ad blocker. you still can't see what different ads download trap button with true download button? lol.

where is the link to the source code? i'm trying to organize all this information since a ton of stuff is on dropbox or pastebins which are not guaranteed to stick around

on my github account ...

EDIT : uploaded project on github done : https://github.com/andibadra/unFARC

is still not complete yet, since no emulator for 3ds on PC (on playable state ...), i just lazy copy paste huge size of file to memory card.

Alright, thanks, Decided to go with skies move base power, currently making a huge LUT for all the moves, its gonna take a while...

you can see my post on this page, i already update with my current note ...(is almost done on most view-able data). right now i still looking for break wall flag and primary effect on it >.>

Move data (on SMD) stored on waza_data_info.bin (act index information) and act_data_info.bin (move information). You can see move list on SMD here (include unused, named xl move, unnamed combination move and unnamed xl moves).

waza_data_info.bin

Containing index for move data (act_data_info.bin) and effect (act_effect_data_info.bin), 18 byte/entry.

act_param_data_info.bin

only have 1 byte/entry, i think is store single value. maybe used on act_data_info.bin

act_effect_data_info.bin

have 68 byte/entry. i was thing is related to animation.

well they couldn't make it more literal. that if condition is literally "if not unbound then". so 926 is Hoopa Confined and 927 is Hoopa Unbound.

i talked with psy_commando and we agree that the negative id in the lua script was supposed to be some hex number, which was interpreted as a signed number. it should make more sense when converted back to (dword?) hexadecimal.

i was think is an unique id (on integer value or on hexadecimal value). look this hoopa dialog on dungeon script :

function Dungeon_OnTalkedFuupa(tokihanatareta)
...
 if DUNGEON_MENU:IsFuupaLegendSummoned() then
   WINDOW:Talk_Fuupa(1157317309)
 else
   WINDOW:Talk_Fuupa(1576943368)
   WINDOW:SelectChain(1227155743, 2)
   WINDOW:SelectChain(-2106081020, 0)
   WINDOW:DefaultCursor(1)
   ret = WINDOW:SelectEndTalk(MENU_SELECT_MODE.ENABLE_CANCEL)
...
 end
end

see on WINDOW:Talk_Fuupa(1157317309), 1157317309 is refer to message unique id (u1). and i got this message :

i just wondering how to get face graphic offset on the game, so far on lua script folder is only defined pokemon id like this one :

function Dungeon_OnTalkedFuupa(tokihanatareta)
 if tokihanatareta == 0 then
   WINDOW:DrawFaceFromPokemonIndex(20, 88, 926, false, FACE_TYPE.NORMAL)
 else
   WINDOW:DrawFaceFromPokemonIndex(20, 88, 927, false, FACE_TYPE.NORMAL)
 end

or call actor function ... to get pokemon id. hoppa id in there is 926 (pokemon id list). and also is have 16 (+16 special expression, not all pokemon have this) kind of expression face ... here for list of them :

NORMAL
HAPPY
PAIN
ANGRY
THINK
SAD
WEEP
SHOUT
TEARS
DECIDE
GLADNESS
EMOTION
SURPRISE
FAINT
RELEIF
CATCHBREATH
SPECIAL01~16

special expression is have number on it like this one :

on FARC type 0x5, when not mark as has filename, filenameoffset field used as unique id? <.<, and also on sir0 message (on smd, not debug), unknown value is used as unique id? >.> since on lua script file is have negative id for calling an dialog text ...

EDIT:

I was think SMD use zlib compression on gyu files and save files, i will check it later.

i made mistake on parsing sir0 message on my tools , my bad. here for fix one. this build also can extract cte image with support most pixel format, little bit tweak on extension renaming and add some example message code on msg_code.json.

and i notice GYU0 file is an compressed format, need poking exefs maybe i get something >.>

EDIT : uploaded project on github done : https://github.com/andibadra/unFARC

maybe this tool useful for someone for unpacking file from farc file, is still same as my first tool i share on here but with GUI. i will added source code on github later.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3122097/unFARC_build_2.7z for temporary build for testing.

for now can extract as RAW, Message Text (debug, non debug, and with code [you can add some definition on msg_code.json file, i will added it later]), potrait picture on SMD

i just wondering pokemon portrait is have a text on it

And those special utf characters are interesting. In previous games, the codes for doing that were between square brackets. Its strange to see they've changed their approach

And yet they're still using SIR0, ever since Red Rescue Team..

unique code id is have 1 byte long, other byte is used as attribute. like Font Color started 0xC101 - 0xC10E, 0xC10F as close tag. text alignment like center (C200) per line (until 0x10 code inserted), icon replacement id (A1xx), linked page (CA00), menus, paragraph, and etc. some code is need more attribute on it like call an value like pokemon id, etc. and also in SMD still used square brackets code lol

hi guys, i extracted the contents of pokemon_graphic.bin using the SIR0 reader in this thread (may wanna put that in the first post?), and got a lot of BIN files, most of which are BCH files (with some BGRS files interspersed which i believe ties the separated animation BCH files together with the models?). i wrote a little code to infer the name of the BCH files of pokemon models: http://pastebin.com/mmdZtU9k

looks like the numbers at the end indicate [form][gender difference]. starters get 0x and 1x (without/with scarf), and some has x0 and x1 for different genders (male/female) with some exceptions.

put the exe in the same folder as the BINs, pipe the output to some text file so that you can see what gets renamed to what. i hope this can be used somehow!

filename of model are stored on pokemon_graphics_database.bin with header container 0x4 0x4 0x4c [filename_offset][?] [file_identification] and pokemon_motion_database.bin with header 0xc 0x4 0x4 0x4 [file_identification] ? ? ?. sir0 with own magicheader, [magic_header][offset][file_count] and must read pointer table to read them.

Also, nvm about the strings missing from the string files within the message.bin file.. Its a bit too early for me to say I guess.. There's a possibility that UTF characters don't show up properly in my hex edtior, and well, I think I'll have an easier time once I can dump my NA rom.. ^^;

And the message.lst file seems to contain the file names for the "string database" files within the message.bin file ! Or at least, that's what I'm assuming.

i was think is just an id for script for get an string or icon (type,item,etc). so is have weird unicode on it, so i advice just look it on hex on sir0 content (not converted text one, it might not correct to convert them).

example :

Use it to teach the move \x65533{591}. But you can't use it on a Pokémon that has already learned or can't learn the move.

\x65533{0} is for call move string list with single value.

is need more them to indexed all of them (also play this game too for make sure what string is...) or you will see a lot weird character (or code) on it. like adventure results window screen if you finish the dungeon ...

The encoded pointer list must end on a 0. It will keep going until it hits one.

So, yep, that's not padding. All those 0xC are actually offsets to pointers within the SIR0 container.

http://projectpokemon.org/wiki/Pmd2_SIR0#Pointer_Offsets_List

sometimes it filled by padding on sir0 used as FAT on FARC (type:5), and sometimes is have multiple set (ex: hint_database.bin). so far i found, is have filename set, data set, configuration set, other thing is depend on structure or none.

Pointer table :

04 04 D2 1C 04 04 30 04 04 30 04 04 30 04 04 30

[A]

header structure :

48 4E 54 00 24 29 00 00 B0 00 00 00 (sometimes [magic header] offset - count [ex attribute], or [magic header] count - offset [ex attribute]

recalculated [A] must same as (offset). (how to encode that just look on wiki). bold one is an magic header. i already done with calculate pointer stuff...

EDIT: after i see on EoT/EoD/EoS, 0xAA is padding, but on 3ds sir0 is used 0x0 as padding. but is not related to pointer table. always ending with 0x0 or 0x10 ...

debug message is used 8 byte on header FAT, i just suspect pointer table is just table of length each file on header FAT. common.bin is have 0xc length each file which is filenameoffset, dataoffset and file lenght, on pointer table say 0xc too and pointer table length fit with file count (-1).

SIR0 Pointer table on common.bin :

04 04 9C 84 14 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C 0C [end with 0x10 0x00]

i suspect 0x0c is not padding, but is seems length of header FAT on each file. italic one is seems an flag .. but i still not sure. sir0 on FARC is have 0x20 on it without 0xXX padding value. since i only have SMD us on my PC, maybe i need to extract GI too (us/jp version).

in short sir0 is an game configuration container, so that why each sir0 file is have different structure. FARC file is have 3 main part : Header, SIR0 (as FAT), and DAT , SIR0 in here used as FAT, which is have 2 type of them, 0x4 and 0x5. i already test my tool for most farc file on SMD, is working fine to find correct offset for each file. idk if is have more than 2 type SIRO FAT on it ... but i will check it later.

here for SIR0 / FARC or related on it structure :

0x0 - FARC (Magic Header)

0x20 - Type of FAT SIR0*

0x24 - first SIR0 Offset as FAT

0x28 - first SIR0 Length as FAT

0x2C - first DAT offset

0x30 - first DAT Length (with first SIR0 last padding)

each volume used 0x20 byte

0x0 : SIR0 magic header

0x4 : game config header offset

0x8 : pointer offset (is related on 3DS Virtual Memory)

0x0 : start Offset

0x4 : file count

0x8 : file name flag (0: with name, 1 : without name)

0x0 : filename offset

0x4 : data offset

0x8 : data lenght

0xc : 0x0

0x0 : filename offset

0x4 : data offset

0x8 : data lenght

well i try encode file on message.bin (packed with FARC container). well too much character is used as code

0x0 : file offset

0x4 : file name offset (is not file lenght)

0x8 : ?? (i think is attribute on text ...)

here for tools : https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3122097/SIR0Reader.7z is still WIP, common FARC is can be extracted as raw file. but not working to read SIR0 Message on debug_message file since this tools used static method for read file offset on SIR0, not dynamic one (used Pointer Data).

I had actually written a program that reads a *SIR0 table and extracts the files from it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0q67hp1um2w4nn5/FARCReader.exe?dl=0

*: It works only on a few SIR0 tables. It only works on the ones that have file names and then the offsets afterwards. This is the code I followed from gdkchan :

0x0 - FARC Signature
0x20 - Number of files
0x24 - SIR0 Offset
0x28 - SIR0 Length
0x2C - Data Offset
0x0 - FARC (Magic Header)
0x20 - Type of FAT SIR0*
0x24 - first SIR0 Offset as FAT
0x28 - first SIR0 Length as FAT
0x2C - first DAT offset
0x30 - first DAT Length (with first SIR0 last padding)
^ 0x20 each volume. up to 3.
well for SIR0 0x4 is not refer to pointer table, but i think is special header for game config format ... , some file is containing magic header (like PKDB, etc) on it too ... (not an offset value). well is same as xbb file on harvest moon (on game configuration file one).
EDIT (*) : for type FAT SIR0 (only for SIR0 used as FAT on FARC)
if is 0x5, it will used 12 byte set.

• without filename : [FileNameOffset*][FileOffset][Filesize] *) might FileNameOffset, is always > sir0 size
  
• with filename : [FileNameOffset][FileOffset][Filesize]
  

with filename:

without filename:

if is 0x4, it will used 16 byte set.

• with filename : [FileNameOffset][FileOffset][Filesize][0x0]
  

Passwords aren't stored. They're interpreted.

i think is still same, stored on wonder_mail.bin. is containing full of code stored on the game.

I was curious if someone could extract an item list? I just want to comfirm if joy seeds or golden seeds exist. Because I've invested 30 hours into the game and still haven't found any.

yes, i found string for "Joy Seed" but golden seeds is not found, you can found that on common.bin on message_en folder (for Super Mystery Dungeon)

Thank you for your answer.

Sadly, I think the loop is indifferent to the new music files since it always matches the loop of the original music files.

Each loop must be somewhere in the game data (garc ? cro ? other ?) but I don't know where and how to edit it.

iirc loop data is store on bcsar file.

offset for banlist is start from 0xA (on every file). it will be like :

01 04 04 04 32 04 00 00 00 00 
                             00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 C0 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 0E 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 C0 07 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 98 7E 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 D8 03 

start from first byte :

00 => 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 (from right to left on every byte, start from 0)

until byte-82, total 656-6 = 650 (649, if 0 is not counted).

if you want bring an legend pokemon just set all to 00.

Looks like it works.

wow, so is no needed any special with these script like harvest moon nut script file ... is interesting

For Hidden grotto editors. Is there a mac version? Also, can you make it so only 1 pokemon can be encountered in the entirety of hidden grotto encounters? Or is that impossible with the current status of that tool?

You mean 1 pokemon on 1 grotto? you should change all slot into one pokemon on each grotto. maybe i will implement that on future update alongside an randomize thing (is possible if is not change game system).

for now, no support for mac and linux. maybe i will try to support these platform on future update, since i don't have machine mac/linux installed. my current tool is still using windows dll so is not compatible with other environment, and i try avoid that on future if want to cross platform.

I've just download this tool, it seems amazing but I'm not able to use it.

I can download things from here, but I don't find any .exe file. Maybe I have to compile it...? But I never did such a thing, usually I write/compile simple files written in C, but it seems a different language...

So I tried to download from https://github.com/andibadra/ANDT/releases, but when I try to unzip something goes wrong and I have only "0kb" files. I saw a .exe, but obviously I cannot use it.

What am I failing?

I'd like also to know if this tools is compatible with Pokemon Blaze Black 2 (it is an hacked rom, if you don't know). Does it see that there were changes on movesets?

Thanks a lot!

(I'm sorry if I made mistakes, English is not my native language )

and sorry for my incomplete information on my old repo. i just lazy on that time , i will try my best to write how to compile, and commented something on it rather than create an wiki or gist.

and thank you for using my tools and any input =), any critic, idea, input is welcome =) and i still working on this.

um you can edit them on narc is containing item information. but Some Effect rate or value is related to an overllay file.

so safe bet, you only can change their price, hp restore, some body effect, item order.

iirc starter are part of map scripting. you should inspect on that.

I can't get the editor to load, I'm ruining windows 8.1 with .net framework 4.5. but it all ways fails at start up whit this message

It looks that I'm missing a dll file? Does any one have any idea where I can get the missing one?

i was think is SQLite.Interop.dll and/or System.Data.SQLite.dll missing. well i have plan to replace these library with native json reader.
