This is the specifications for the archive file which is handled by the
Game Extractor plugin
Archive_PAK_6.
Endian Order: | Little Endian |
Compression: | None |
Encryption: | None |
This format is used by the following Games:
Carmageddon: Total Destruction Racing 2000 | *.pak *.dir |
This is the format specification information:
| // for each file (read until EOF)
X - filename (read until byte=8)
4 - Offset
4 - Size |
These are the accompanying notes and further information:
| *.dir has the details, *.pak has the file data.
To determine the filename, do the following
String filename = readByte();
while (readByte() != (byte)8){
filename += readByte();
}
Explaination:
Each character of the filename is split over 2 bytes, with each 2nd byte determining when to stop
When the 2nd byte is 8, stop.
Otherwise, add the next byte to the filename |
