When opening the Fury assets from the Fury Challenge DVD (sadly I had deleted all Alpha content from late 2006 till release), I am getting the following message:


This kindof looks like only a little assertion needs to be fixed to be able to access some of the files in that package, like here (/smf/index.php?topic=424.0).

OggExtract (http://ner.mine.nu/oggextract/) is able to extract ogg files from all the packages that sounded like they had some ogg content (e.g. Music.upk). It has sourcecode included, maybe that can also help you.

UPK Info (http://gearsforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=597581) is able to display most files but has problems with extracting files, e.g. when extracting an ogg file, parts of the header are missing (easy to see when comparing the oggextract version of the same file). Also source included.

Here are two very small files that you can use for testing: http://rapidshare.com/#!download|285dt|439388197|Fury.rar|9 (http://rapidshare.com/#!download|285dt|439388197|Fury.rar|9)

Anything else I can do to help you improve support for Fury assets? If you could release (or send me) the source code I could also try to debug what happens when trying to open those files.

According to the compatibility table (/projects/umodel/compat), Fury is not supported at all, so "improving" is a wrong term here :)
Error "Assertion failed: size >= 0 && size < (256<<20)" means nothing but "unexpected data format", so fixing it is exactly the same as "do support for this game"
List of what I need for researching any game can be found in the FAQ (/smf/index.php/topic,660.0.html)
To load data without errors umodel should use code identical to the game - it is not possible (usually) to "understand" error, we must find loading code in the game binary (find a few kilobytes in the 20-50Mb executable!) and duplicate it in the umodel.

Thanks for the quick reply.

I wasn't able to find a pkgtool report (or rather, I don't know what it is so I didn't know what to look for), so I took a freshly installed version, removed most of the large files (tgas, mp3s, most fmaps, a lot of upks) and uploaded the stripped version here: http://rapidshare.com/files/439536993/Fury_stripped.rar

Fury is now FULLY supported. Enjoy.

I have discovered recently that Fury version provided here is not latest :(
So I probably will need to repeat the whole process to update support for this game.
"-game=fury" will not help.

I just uploaded a stripped version of Fury build 35256: http://rapidshare.com/files/439727526/Fury_v35256_stripped.rar

Will be able to patch it up to 35616 and upload a stripped version of that too, although I guess it won't change anymore.

It makes sense to keep support for each different version though. The Fury Challenge DVD Version I uploaded was probably a 20xxx version. I don't have older ones, most importantly the 16xxx ones which also used a different format afaik as most of the core tech was rebuilt around 19xxx.

I have updated Fury support. Now both (old and new) Fury versions should work.

Awesome, yes it's working with both versions, thanks a lot! Donation sent.
