DK Online TR translation

[FliP0x]

Dragon Knights Online (short: DK Online) used to be hosted at Aeria Games, but the game went temporarily down for bugfixes and improvements in April 2013. Since then, there are no news about the development.
Recently I discovered there is a Turkish version of the game, which is accessible worldwide.

What I'd like to do is to translate the game, or as I dont speak nor understand turkish, replace certain NA/US files with TR files.
The purpose of this translation is having a place to play DK Online until the US Re-release.

I still have the US DK Online client untouched and ready to play if the servers were up, however I do not know how to extract them.

The turkish version is located here. There is a decent amount of people waiting for the US Version to come back, so this translation would be of purpose.

I have a little knowledge when it comes to modding or editing Games and MMOs, I did work on clients and servers of various games such as Silkroad and Shaiya.
If anyone would help me with this, I'd appreciate it, and so would a bunch of other people.

Simply contact me per PM or reply here so we can get the translation going.

EDIT:
Another option I thought of could be HEX Editing the US Launcher to connect to the TR Servers instead. It may be buggy, but a good alternative to start with.

The Client consists of .pak, .map and .ext files. If I remember well, it is exact as the US Client, same file names even.

Apparently the executables are coded with Themida. I will provide you the Launcher, Game.exe and examples of each file type for you to see if you can work with them, any help is appreciated.

I'm curious how to extract those files to see what is inside, and if there is any text, to translate it. My work will obviously be public once finished or at least playable with basic Menu, Mob and Item translations.

can you upload the client file to mega.co.nz, i cant download from main site

[FliP0x]

Uploading would take days as I have very slow upload speed. Just the example files took me 32mins to upload.
The Installation is about 5,8GB large.

Here is the Direct Download and the Official Torrent.

Thank you for your reply and interest to get this project done ;)

EDIT:
I found a QuickBMS script to extract the files, I cannot test it currently as I am on a Linux PC. Once tested and if it works, we still need a re-compiler to put the files back together.

get zsize asize 
math zsize - 4 
goto zsize 
get offset long 
print "%offset%" 
math offset - 4 
goto offset 
get files long 
savepos offset 
math zsize - offset 
set size files 
math size * 0x114 
clog MEMORY_FILE offset zsize size 
for i = 0 < files 
getdstring name 0x104 MEMORY_FILE  
get size long MEMORY_FILE  
get zsize long MEMORY_FILE  
get offset long MEMORY_FILE  
get null long MEMORY_FILE  
clog name offset zsize size 
next i

Thank u for working on the translation, looking forward to it!

Unless I get a tool to re-compile the files back together, I wont be able to translate it.

There are numerous DK Online clients that are English, but using their files does not work.
