Sabre Squadron Extractor

Unread post by hdmaster » Sun Apr 17, 2011 4:23 pm

Hi guys,

I wrote a small program that's able to extract files from ALL .DTA files. No fragmented or damaged data (except sounds). I'll publish it soon, but for now here's the content of the Missions and Scripts folder of Sabre Squadron:

Missions & Scripts (.zip)

EDIT:
Uploaded Maps & Models too

Models (.zip)
Maps (.7z)

EDIT2:
Here's the extractor with the source code included.

Very Well!

Could you please upload also MAPS_U, which should cointains textures for Sabre Squadron? I need it for background maps in new occupation missions..

You should be able to extract Maps_U without the new extractor...

Not sure, but as i remember, the hd2 extractor not able to extract the SS dta files.  So yeah, upload  some SS textures and models would be nice.

@Ikaros:
I don't have a Maps_U.dta in my hd2 dir, I think this file is only created when you patch HD2 to 1.12 but I
installed sabre right after hd2 so there was no need to patch it. However I guess the content of SabreSquadron.dta and Maps_U.dta is somehow identical.

I uploaded the models and maps folder (no .dx files). Here you go:
Maps (.7z)
Models (.zip)

Don't you have a Maps_C? That's C for censored and U for uncensored. If you have the Germany copy, you have Maps_C. Both have nothing to do with installation of Sabre Squadron.

Hi!
I don't really need them, but (just for curiosity) what about the non-coop sabre squadron missions?
Like, for example, Normandy 2B...
Or the big castle..

Do you think you could extract them also? Just to know.. I repeat, I do not need them and I am NOT asking you to do more work :)

@ViTaMiHnM203:
Yeah you're right ;)

@Ikaros:
Just download the extractor now. It should be able to extract the other maps, too. But I guess you meant Normandy4 not Normandy2B ;)

Ehm, I meant Normandy2B, but I could be a little confused. Normandy2 is the Bank map. Normandy2B is a variation of it, with more usable buildings. I tought it was from Sabre. My bad :)

Thank you very much for the extractor! I'll try it as soon as I can.
I've started writing all my knowledges in these days, and it took a lot of time, so I'm stopped with other works...

I've noticed that the 'data.bin' contains only the filenames of the censored maps. That means only the censored maps will be extracted if Maps_c.dta is present. So if you want to extract the uncensored ones open the data.bin and replace every 'maps_c' with 'maps_u'.

@ViTaMiHnM203:
No with QT i mean QT by Nokia which is a  framework written in C++ for creating GUIs. You just need this if you're interested in the source code and want to change the code of the extractor and rebuild the .exe again. I've already included the HD2_Extractor.exe that's ready to extract the files.

@Ikaros:
Already had a look at your guide. Really great! Keep up the good work!
