RECV_Editor

Tool to extract and edit texts and other localizable data from Resident Evil: Code Veronica for PS2 and, in the future, for the other versions too. It's still in a very alpha state.

Requirements

The program requires the .NET Framework 4.7.2.

RDX Format

Most RDX files contain a magic 0x41200000 (Magic1), but some of them contain 0x40051eb8 (Magic2).

An RDX file contains 5 data blocks. Their pointers are located at 0x10.

• Block 0

  • Always 16 sub-blocks.
  • Some sub-block pointers can be 0, so there's no data there.
  • Sub-block 14 contains texts, unless its pointer is 0.
  • If the RDX has Magic2, the pointer to sub-block 12 is an unknown value and not a pointer.

• Block 1

  • Variable number of sub-blocks.
  • Pointers have an alignment of 0x40 bytes.
  • Pointers are always consecutive (no zeroes in the middle).
  • Pointers always end when reaching the first 0, or when reaching the data of the first sub-block (always "MDL").

• Block 2

  • Variable number of sub-blocks.
  • Pointers can be non-consecutive (there can be zeroes in the middle).
  • Sometimes it contains a completely different type of data without pointers at the beginning.

• Block 3

• Block 4

  • It has multiple entries with TIM2 containers.
  • Those containers can have multiple TIM2 textures, but those TIM2 are a bit unconventional. They have an extra header of 0x20 bytes. Removing it, it becomes a normal TIM2.
  • Sometimes, there is a PLI section before the TIM2.
  • There is one case, in RDX #87, that there is a null file of 0x20 bytes and a magic 0xFFFFFFFF.
