Can't open Judgment (PC)'s stream files
AlpineEscape opened this issue · comments
Whenever I try and unpack the streamed audio files (stream.par at 2.5GB and stream_en.par 1.5GB) I get this error.
The tool definitely works though, because I incorrectly extracted sound.par (447MB) first but it pulled all the files out correctly.
What's going on here? I assumed it might be a filesize issue with the tool but it's a different error message to the other open issue about offset addresses.
I don't have the game, so I can't test it, but it seems that the .par files in that game are encrypted.
@SutandoTsukai181 have coded a tool to decrypt chara.par: https://github.com/SutandoTsukai181/yagami-decryption-agency
and, maybe, he has more info about this
Only chara.par and chara2.par are encrypted pars, and they can be decrypted with the mentioned tool.
As for stream.par, stmdlc.par and their _en versions... well they are actually CPK files, with .par extension:
You can unpack them with a CPK unpacker, someone tried that already and it worked. The files might look encrypted but they can be unpacked just fine.
Not sure if this is something to do with ParTool or the decryption, but this was the error I got after running ParTool on the decrypted "chara.par" file. "chara2.par" worked fine, though...!
