Way to drag up a 5 year old post for shameless self promotion

Looking around in a few programs it seems an XPR ripper/re-packer is badly need. XPR being a XBox Binary Resource File optimized for the XBox to read the contents right into memory.  This is where much of the texture/vertex/other data is stored for many a game.

Anyone up to the challenge?

The function to read the XPR should look something like this:

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Name: LoadPackedResource()
// Desc: Loads all the texture resources from the given XPR.
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
HRESULT LoadPackedResource()
{
  // Open the file to read the XPR headers
  FILE* file = fopen( "D:\\media\\Resource.xpr", "rb" );
  if( NULL == file )
      return E_FAIL;

  // Read in and verify the XPR magic header
  XPR_HEADER xprh;
  if(fread( &xprh, sizeof(XPR_HEADER), 1, file) != 1)
  {
      fclose(file);
      return E_FAIL;
  }

  if( xprh.dwMagic != XPR_MAGIC_VALUE )
  {
      OutputDebugStringA( "ERROR: Invalid Xbox Packed Resource (.xpr) file" );
      fclose( file );
      return E_INVALIDARG;
  }

  // Compute memory requirements
  DWORD dwSysMemDataSize = xprh.dwHeaderSize - sizeof(XPR_HEADER);
  DWORD dwVidMemDataSize = xprh.dwTotalSize - xprh.dwHeaderSize;

  // Allocate memory
  g_pResourceSysMemData = new BYTE[dwSysMemDataSize];
  g_pResourceVidMemData = (BYTE*)D3D_AllocContiguousMemory( dwVidMemDataSize, D3DTEXTURE_ALIGNMENT );

  // Read in the data from the file
  if(fread( g_pResourceSysMemData, dwSysMemDataSize, 1, file ) != 1 ||
     fread( g_pResourceVidMemData, dwVidMemDataSize, 1, file ) != 1 )
     
  {
      delete [] g_pResourceSysMemData;
      D3D_FreeContiguousMemory(g_pResourceVidMemData);
      fclose(file);
      return E_FAIL;
  }

  // Done with the file
  fclose( file );
 
  // Loop over resources, then call a function to save it to HDD
  BYTE* pData = g_pResourceSysMemData;

  for( DWORD i = 0; i < resource_NUM_RESOURCES; i++ )
  {
      // Get the resource
      LPDIRECT3DRESOURCE8 pResource = (LPDIRECT3DRESOURCE8)pData;

      // Save in appropriate format to HDD
      pResource->SaveToHD( g_pResourceVidMemData );
 
      // Advance the pointer
      switch( pResource->GetType() )
      {
          case D3DRTYPE_TEXTURE:       pData += sizeof(D3DTexture);       break;
          case D3DRTYPE_VOLUMETEXTURE: pData += sizeof(D3DVolumeTexture); break;
          case D3DRTYPE_CUBETEXTURE:   pData += sizeof(D3DCubeTexture);   break;
          case D3DRTYPE_VERTEXBUFFER:  pData += sizeof(D3DVertexBuffer);  break;
          case D3DRTYPE_INDEXBUFFER:   pData += sizeof(D3DIndexBuffer);   break;
          case D3DRTYPE_PALETTE:       pData += sizeof(D3DPalette);       break;
          default:                     return E_FAIL;
      }
  }

  return S_OK;
}

You'd need to add some code to convert textures to .bmp's (with volume and cube writing multiple .bmp's), the vertices and indices can be text (I think).

Do a search on XPR in the DK docs for the specs that the bundler uses to create the files in the first place.  PM me if you interesting working on this.
