Extremely interesting thread. I just now came over it after decrypting EO Untold (both the Japanese and English release) in hopes of getting it undubbed. Unfortunately that's impossible without unpacking the HPB file (and probably re-packing it as well) as there is clearly a "voice" folder inside of it by looking at the hex text. I wonder why they'd want to compress this in such a special way, they didn't with the Japanese Persona Q release.

I'm counting on you xdaniel to unpack it! Seems like you guys are the only ones with the knowledge and the skills to pull this off.

Anyway, you'll probably still need to rebuild the .HPB and .HPI, tho, as I'd imagine it's pretty unlikely for the Japanese and English voice files to have the same length.

I'll have a look into rebuilding the .HPB/.HPI files, probably over the next couple of days. Not promising any fast results tho, seeing how there's still a bunch of data in there that I don't understand yet


That sounds fantastic that they are possible to get out and maybe replace as well. As long as the voices can be extracted, played and put back into the HPB it would most likely work.

Thanks a lot for taking a look at it. Take your time, there's no hurry!
