Where To Start With This Unknown Format Db File...
« on: February 02, 2004, 07:01:00 AM »

K. I got skills in programming. Doing a lot of ASP, VB, C++ at work. Just started training on .NET and C#... but unfortunately, not much skill in HEX editing and reverse engineering.

I have this database file, with extension .DB which I have no idea what format it is. The header doesn't contain any information to help identify the file.
Its binary, its a database and it works with SEGA NHL2K3.
My guess... the format is proprietary to SEGA and they used the .DB extension for it.
This file contains the roster (list of players with attributes) for SEGA NHL2K3.
Now, someone pulled out an editor for roster updates but its lacking functionalities and we want to create our own editor. What we need to do is access this database file.

Anyone would know where to start to crack this file ?

Thanks for any tips.
