Cabal ENC Compression Tool

[HellSpider]

Hi.

This is my latest project.
I've coded an application that is able to compress files into ENC files that Cabal clients use and vice versa.

This application is coded in MASM.

You can choose the bytes used to XOR the first DWORD of the packed data.
The input must be in hex characters in 2 character notation (5A, 2E, 98, CE, 5D ... ).

You can also choose the compression level. Values:

Minimum compression: 1
Maximum compression: 9

If you encounter any bugs, post them to this thread, don't PM me!

i want ask .... we need one by one all file enc to xor key or only one file ...

can give me what file we need xor key thnks ...

very good project!

Excellent Thanks HellSpider

What are the differences between compression levels?

What are the differences between compression levels?

The compression rate. I thought that would be obvious
Higher compression level = smaller file.

Common-sense isn't as common as the word suggests :tongue:

HellSpider, would you mind to add parameter support, so users can create batch jobs?
It's a good release, though.

No, sorry. I would mean I have to rewrite a lot of the functions. Because as it is now, it gets all the required params in different places of the code :/:.

But hey, Yama told me he got a similar tool with the commandline arg support .

 

[Yamachi]

Indeed, and it would be very simple for me to add customisable compression levels to COZip.

Good release !That will decompress all files .enc? Or only cabal.enc?

All ENC's are compressed and XOR'd the same way.

A XOR cryption is not a really encription. Its most like binary thing. Its just more like an "obfuscation".

0 XOR 0 = 0
0 XOR 1 = 1
1 XOR 0 = 1
1 XOR 1 = 0

So, lets take as example the word Apple.

41 70 70 6C 65 00

The XOR Key is 0xED.

Lets "encrypt" just the first letter of the word Apple, the "0x41".

01000001 = 41 = 'A'
11101101 = ED
10101100 = AC = 41 XOR ED

I think its more clear now, how this "encryption" works.
Try to "encrypt" the 0xAC you get making 0x41 XOR 0xED. You will get the "decrypted" value, 0x41.

Thank you for sharing this, please consider building more cabal related applications. TDP is looking for programmers tbh...

Well he did build some other cabal-related app, like the public X-trap killer I was talking about <3.

Well atleast he do some Good Contribution in RZ.
Me, Nothing to say I just Thank HellSpider for this Compression Tool
People will do the same thing which they think they are happy with it

The x-trap killer is "Good" for others too ;3

I think if this utility can read text file for batch mode it will perfect

do-this-many-time-loop
{
1. loadfile
2. compress/decompress
}

Cool.....

 

[Shiftyy]

Which ones are the default XOR Bytes for the EP8 files?
