any news about database?

Try the latest NVidia beta driver
It works much better with it. Replays are still a bit laggy tho.
Anyone using nvidia should use THIS driver.

LOL beta? after the 196.75 fiasco, resulting in TERMINATED nvidia cards, i dont even dare to download a beta driver from Nvidia.

Il just wait for the WHQL release.

I use it, is not a big deal, and there is nothing important in quality.

How about game running? No any problem?

I can't notice any problems running the game with the dataX.bh and dataX.big files extracted and deleted.
It may be noticable on slower systems, laptops etc.
Someone should try it and report.

I'm running on I7 920 @3.8 and 5870 all settings maxed at 1920 x 1080

thanks for the advice buddy. i wanna congrats also for your first post since 2006. it's really interesting to me

Ya, long time lurker! What happen is.....it would never let me post before, saying I didn't have permission, and couldn't figure out why. Then I finally reread the error msg and figured I must not have sent a confirm email code back, so I resent the activation code to my email, and BAM first POST! lol
Plus I felt that the beta driver made a BIG enough difference, that nvidia users should know.

Your work is amazing guys, keep it up, just one file system and we're able to edit this crazy game forever.
Rinaldo: Could we hope for a Sound Master 11 or something ? I'd really like to be able to extract the new commentary from the game, because it seems like PES 11 is also a most-play game for me (FIFA 11 PC, too ofc), and the commentary sucks like hell in PES.
The only thing I can know is that the commentary is located in data05.big, nothing more than that.I can't even open it via bigGUI (incompatible header).
P.S. I'd be glad to help you with making some useful videos for your work, but unfortunately FIFA runs like crap on my PC since I've installed 7 (despite using 260 Drivers, and despite the game ran like butter on XP), and I can't help you AT MOMENT. I'm still trying to figure out my laggy & stuttering experience, and them I'll be back on track, seemingly.

Hi guys, can anyone pls extract the image from ball_217_textures.rx3 file?

 

[F4F|Black]

Her you´re dude

 

[RobbieD_PL]

Thanks very much Sido!

Has anyone managed to convert models yet to .o?

 

[Duong]

Or we could all start working with 3ds max.

 

[chelskifan123]

$ido, how did you extract the image from ball_217_textures.rx3 file.

I have all the rx3 files extracted from datax.big files.

How do you get the images out, and can you change them and add them back?

Thanks to all the modders working on this.

Using fifafs I found out an useful information...
Differently from rx3 files, the textures located in data/ui subfolders are big files that contain a texture: that texture is a simple .dds compressed file. Making fifafs uncompressing the files in the big and simply GIVING the texture file the .dds extension you will get the pic out of it. Here you are an example:

Is it possible to decompress the rx3 file to .o? or convert the bin file extracted from there?

Thanks Outsider,
I managed to extract a teamlogo from s5.big in "FIFA 11 Demo\Game\data\ui\artAssets\teamlogos", edit the logo, put it back into s5.big using fifafs and it shows up in the game.

I did try just deleting s5.big, and leaving all the files extracted but the game crashed at match start.

hi to all i have uploaded a font file of the game, because it is not compressed with zlib and i don´t want to lose time searching the compression method of this file because i am very busy developing my program. If anyone knows it, please tell it to me. Thank´s
