After a short try i wonder where is the german patch'? My girlfriend wanna play this game in this language.
i downloaded your extracting tool and would like to translate the "

german".
Can someone tell me which File contains the whole GAME TEXT? Does it exist?

Sadly I can't seem to get this to work, when I try to open Grimrock.dat I get the error message: "Unknown File Type". Any ideas?

Same - I guess it needs a new hash table after the patch to beta?

Just a couple of notes to help anyone else who is doing some programming/scripting to try to extract files since the Dungeon Editor was introduced. I've tweaked one of my python scripts and have been able to extract the textures and audio files from the latest version of grimrock.dat.
I don't want to share the Python just yet as it's a complete mess and doesn't work for all of the files etc. But I just wanted to make a few notes for anyone else who is working on this incase I end up never tidying up my Python (I'll upload it somewhere soon if I don't, just incase it's useful for others).
1. The 4cc for the file is now GRA2.
2. Each file entry record in the grimrock.dat file is now 20 bytes long (I don't know what the last 4 are, I just discard them for now!).
3. In the filelist / hashtable, all files with extension .d3d9_texture now have extension .dds.
I'm afraid that's all I've learned. I just wanted to retexture something, so now that I've got the textures out - I'm happy! There appears to be something funny going on with the zlib compression too, but I don't know what yet.

My apologies - I was just too eager to re-skin some of the items within the game! I can't wait for the asset pack.
