As soon as I'm sure the lua files editing is still possible, I'll go on with the tool development

Importing files is not a problem. Most files in FIFA 13 have the same name and structure that in FIFA 12. Just removing them from bh files and they will be read from folders.

The problem is that if we are not able to decrypt files we won´t be able to edit database as we used to.

Yes, the db and other files too that have been surely changed (lua files for example).

i'm not that sure. db is surely different as data stored, but i think the structure/format is the same, at least cause dbmaster12 is able to open the xbox one

Outsi, any word from Rinaldo? Have tried to contact him, but failed. Atleast a beta CM like we got for F12 would have been awesome. And DBM13 too.. But where could be the db?

Yes, but what I mean is that, if with graphics files you can bet template is the same and so you can put files in folders as you do in FIFA 12, for db files and lua files things are different: you need ORIGINAL files to start editing them

1. For lua, I just use settings.lua of FIFA 12 for FIFA 13 Demo, and also remove reference of settings.lua from datax.bh by manual, but it seems not worked, maybe the file settings.lua is different between FIFA 12 and FIFA 13

2. For db, I got one but it is XBOX version, both fifa_ng_db.db and eng_us.db, so I convert to PC version. You can download here:

A big question. What program i can use to remove files from bh?

Use an Hex editor.

For instance lets say you want to remove face_158023_0_0_0_0_0_0_0_0_textures.rx3 ( messi face texture )
So go to data3.big from FIFA 12 and search for the file.

You will find
data/sceneassets/faces/face_158023_0_0_0_0_0_0_0_0_textures.rx3

well before that there are 4 bytes
00020C23

Now go to data3.bh from FIFA 12 and serach for them
You will find this

00020C23 00000000 3863005F38313CB6

The one in red is the file hash.

Well now go to data3.bh from FIFA 13 and search for that hash.
Replace it all with 00 and file will be read from folder.

 

[tn-ural]

Is it possible to now get the texture of the FIFA 13 demo?
If anyone can, post them here please

 

[N-Razvan]

You can use TexMod to extract textures.

 

[scouser09]

I can confirm that some FIFA 12 rx3 files work in FIFA 13. So far I have tried kits, balls and adboards and all of these work in the demo.

I confirm that FIFA 13 Demo's settings.lua isn't the same as FIFA12, or otherwise isn't in the same folder in data0.big.
I use the same moddingway method below with an Hex editor, the hash are not the same.
bye
