who is currently in charge of this and what is currently needed? looking at the technical side.

 

[juanmanuelt]

No one is in charge and we need some one that can update the old 32bits tool to make it work on the new 64bits.

 

[The Squig]

which resources specifically do not work?

 

[juanmanuelt]

I only know that it does not work.
If you know anything about programing: Gibbed Toolset - x64 Project

That tool does not work anymore with the STO files.

 

[The Squig]

i don't know anything about that specific toolset, but i have a similar toolset made for coh, so if someone explains what is not working, i might be able to offer assistance.

In a nutshell, the tools are 32-bit but the game switched over to 64-bit

So we need 64-bit tools

Yes, I dont know more than that. The guys that know are no longer active here.

 

[The Squig]

well, what i want to know is exactly what does not work, and what it's supposed to do. then maybe i can modify my coh tools to fill the gap.

 

[juanmanuelt]

With that tool we drag the .hogg files located on Star Trek Online\Star Trek Online\Live\piggs. The problem is not there, the program still works for that. But inside the .hogg thare are files .bin and there is the problem. Before we could open them with this program and re pack them again. Now we cant, the files are 64bits and the program is 32bits.

More than that, I cant really said. I only know it does not work.

Btw, we can use any help we can, so thanks for trying.

 

[The Squig]

okay, so you can't open the bin files. which files give the problem?

 

[juanmanuelt]

Costumegeometry.bin that is inside bins.hggs

 

[The Squig]

okay, so what happens from there? what is it supposed to look like and what do you then do when it works?

i am able to extract this file using a coh toolset, but do not know what you want to happen.

 

[juanmanuelt]

Then we use again the tool to extract the files inside Costumegeometry.bin but there cames the error.

Can you provide a link to your tool?

 

[The Squig]

which tool? i use a modified version of https://sourceforge.net/projects/piggviewer/files/latest/download to extract the bin, but you can already do that. i use a hex editor to manually view and edit the bin. i need to know what changes you need to make in order to add them.

 

[juanmanuelt]

Can you make a tool to open the Costumegeometry.bin and repack it again? That is all we need really. Or at least, can you upload an open Costumegeometry.bin?

 

[The Squig]

i don't know what you mean by this. can you provide an example of what changes you want to make?

 

[juanmanuelt]

Like I said, what we need is a tool to open the files inside Costumegeometry.bin and to compress it back to the Costumegeometry.bin.

 

[The Squig]

what is this uncompressed value supposed to look like? without knowing what you need as output, i don't know what you need, since i can already edit the file as it is.

 

[juanmanuelt]

Inside cosutmegoemetry.bin we have a lot of folders with this: \Costumegeometry\Defs\Costumes\Definitions\Startrekfemale\Geometries
In there we have the xml that we edit.
Each cryptic patch, adds new xml by adding ships, or ship textures, so the cosutmegoemetry.bin stops working for the mod (that uses an old one) due to the fact that we can no longer update it with the new files.
So, we need, eather a new open cosutmegoemetry.bin with all the folders and files and a way to compress it back, or a tool to decompress and compress back.

 

[The Squig]

i do not see any xml files in there, there are no xml headers, so i am not sure what you mean. i do not think this exists anymore, which is why your program cannot extract this data. whatever it used to be, the file has now been converted into binary format instead of text format and you must edit using hex editor.
