STRING START "00" STRING <character> = A single character "00" STRING END "0000" = Separates two strings </character> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrem Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 I've had some good success with this file since yesterday. I now understand the file fully and have made a mini program to strip out all the strings from this file (see attached). I will add the ability to build an SRF file tomorrow and polish it off. <file removed, now in downloads section> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrem Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 Seems I got it wrong, it was probably because I was up at 12pm doing this. the SRF file is not for game strings, upon further looking the words inside match filenames.Testing also revealed that by changing it the game crashed, which wouldn't really happen if it was a string file. Never the less, I finished the application to edit this file and it works. I will post tomorrow. So besides me thinking it was for game strings, everything is still correct.

le717 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Uh, Cyrem. I see that you have taken down the downloads section, but you forgot to change this link. I can't download the program because it can't be found. So, what exactly does this do? I'm reading that it references file names. So does that mean that we could mod one of these and use different assets in a race? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Try this: https://ore.rockraidersunited.org/legacy/SRF%20Builder_17395.zip I don't know if normal members can see the link, but you can access the new uploader from the RRU dropdown tab at the top of the page (under Members and Speed Runs). You might only be able to see it on the new skin, too. Lair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Cupcake Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 You might only be able to see it on the new skin, too. Wait, what new skin? I'm wondering the same thing. I've heard of talk of it, but it isn't out to my knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JrMasterModelBuilder Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I'm not exactly a normal member but I can confirm that I can see the File Upload page using the default (and only AFAIK) skin although I don't see any way to browse uploaded files.

Cirevam Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 You don't see "View all uploaded files here." on the upload page? Weird. Try this then: http://www.rockraide.../uploadfilelist Cyrem also confirmed that normal members can't use the new skin yet. There are still a few issues but it's almost finished and it looks really nice. You know, sometimes I don't realize that I has access to certain things that others don't and it makes me feel like an out-of-touch politician...

dead_name Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 I would like to point out that your documentation, while close, is incorrect. I'm on my phone so I won't make a massive post, I'll document it when I get back to my computer. EDIT: u16 string_count; // number of strings in the file u16 char_count; // number of chars, presumably for the sake of buffer allocation u16 string_offsets[string_count]; // offset to each string, IN CHARS NOT BYTES u16 strings[char_count]; // each character is represented by a u16, and is null-terminated (0x0000 since it's u16) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mumboking Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 SRF Builder seems to give me broken .SRF files. I don't think I'm doing anything wrong. I strip the original .SRF and edit the text file it creates. I then build the new .SRF from the text file and put it in the game's folders. The game then shows the wrong strings for some things.

I strip the original .SRF and edit the text file it creates. I then build the new .SRF from the text file and put it in the game's folders. The game then shows the wrong strings for some things. Maybe it's becuase of the flawed source which origamiguy pointed out ealier? Anyway, I was pulling out text from the Demo, and lookie at what I found. Located under "MENUDATAENGLISHCIRCUIT.SRF" CIRCUIT#1 CIRCUIT#2 CIRCUIT#3 CIRCUIT#4 ROYAL KNIGHTS RACEWAY IMPERIAL GRAND PRIX DESERT ADVENTURE DRAGWAY MAGMA MOON MARATHON DARK FOREST DASH TRIBAL ISLAND TRAIL AMAZON ADVENTURE ALLEY ICE PLANET PATHWAY KNIGHTMARE-ATHON PIRATE SKULL PASS ADVENTURE TEMPLE TRAIL ALIEN RALLY ASTEROID ROYAL KNIGHTS RACEWAY IMPERIAL GRAND PRIX DESERT ADVENTURE DRAGWAY MAGMA MOON MARATHON DARK FOREST DASH TRIBAL ISLAND TRAIL AMAZON ADVENTURE ALLEY ICE PLANET PATHWAY KNIGHTMARE-ATHON PIRATE SKULL PASS ADVENTURE TEMPLE TRAIL ALIEN RALLY ASTEROID ROCKET RACER RUN ROCKET RACER RUN It's the list of all the track names, in order of gameplay, including the mirror tracks. But take a look at the last two lines. Rocket Racer Run is listed, twice. There is no mirror version of that, except via cheat code. Then why is it listed like that? Major Edit: Under "GAMEDATACOMMONENGLISHGAME.SRF", again from the demo: ROYAL KNIGHTS RACEWAY IMPERIAL GRAND PRIX DESERT ADVENTURE DRAGWAY MAGMA MOON MARATHON DARK FOREST DASH TRIBAL ISLAND TRAIL AMAZON ADVENTURE ALLEY ICE PLANET PATHWAY KNIGHTMARE-ATHON PIRATE SKULL PASS ADVENTURE TEMPLE TRAIL ALIEN RALLY ASTEROID ROCKET CITY RUN TEST TRACK CONTINUE RESTART RACE RESTART CIRCUIT EXIT YES NO GAME PAUSED YOU DID NOT BEAT VERONICA VOLTAGE. RACE AGAIN? YOU HAVE BEATEN VERONICA VOLTAGE! RACE AGAIN? ST ND RD TH TH TH TH TH - > < WRONG WAY BEST TOTAL LAP FINISH GO FINISHED STILL RACING ARE YOU SURE? CIRCUIT DEMO "Rocket City Run".

lol username Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Old news, it's called "Rocket City Run" on the load screen for some reason. Probably just a screw-up or beta name that got changed or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
