Hashes¶
The vast majority of the game and its executable uses hashed strings. This makes any reverse-engineering work tedious as strings cannot always be recovered, and decompilation work can be complicated without a hash list of sorts.
Hashes can be found just about everywhere - in table files, in the executable as compile-time constants, inside model files, prfb/matb... and more.
Algorithm¶
The algorithm is XXHash32 with some odd twist.
C# code for it can be found here.
Tester¶
An empty string "" is always equal to 887AE0B0 / B0 E0 7A 88.
Hash List¶
You can grab a zipped hash list here.
It contains:
- Hashes for the majority of english words
- Hashes for most strings for all game files gathered with
