MDT (Gotcha Force): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 14:08, 6 September 2022

This section is currently being written.

More research is needed and some paragraphs may be wrong.

MDT files are similar to PZZ files, with a header of 0x800 / 2048 bytes including :

the number of files (uint32 big endian)
the file size / 0x800 for each file

It is possible to unpack and repack .mdt files with the pzztool.py tool. Unlike pzz, the internal files of .mdt are packaged and not compressed.

000 dat file contains at first sight all texts of the game (Related to all dat file, not only one).
001 TPL including an alphanumeric alphabet used by the dat file

Virtual World RE has developed the python script pzztool.py to manipulate MDT files and their internal files.

PGCD of MDT file sizes: 2048 / 0x800
